Information not to be missed

The Minister of the Interior denounces a “call to hatred”, calls him a “slip of the tongue”.

A Tunisian imam from Gard is under threat of having his residence permit withdrawn, a request made by Gérald Darmanin.

Mahjoub Mahjoubi is accused of having delivered an anti-French sermon, during which he described the “tricolor flag” as a “satanic flag”.

The prefect of Gard reported the imam last Friday to the Nîmes public prosecutor's office, which opened a preliminary investigation for advocating terrorism.

Questioned this Tuesday on Franceinfo, Jérôme Bonet assured that Mahjoub Mahjoubi was the subject of “monitoring which dates back several months” and pointed out a “drift established by several recent sermons”, appearing to him as “offenses”.

The imam has been at the heart of a controversy since the broadcast of a video on social networks of a sermon in which he assures that the “tricolor flag” has “no value with Allah”.

He explained himself in particular to France Bleu.

He claimed to have made a “slip of the tongue”: he would have wanted to refer to “all these flags that we raise in the stadiums” during the African Football Cup of Nations and “which divide Muslims”.

He said he wanted to talk about “multicolored flags or different colors.”
