Intervention in Telegram accounts for racist attack plans in France is on the way
The Interior Ministry took action after Tajmaat’s Twitter account exposed the Telegram group, which includes calls for attacks against Arabs, Muslims and blacks.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin announced that he has ordered the closure of Telegram groups used by the far-right group FRDeter, which was exposed over the weekend.
Darmanin shared the news from Ouest-France on the subject on his Twitter account.
“It has been requested to close Telegram groups with racist comments and calls for violence.” Using the term Darmanin, teams from the Ministry of the Interior began working with judicial authorities to identify and prosecute those who shared the groups.
The existence of the Telegram groups in question was revealed over the weekend by a Twitter account called Tajmaat.
In the screenshots shared by Tajmaat, users are seen to have made racist comments and calls for violence in Telegram groups with far-right members of FRDeter, with some users describing themselves as policemen or soldiers belonging to neo-Nazi movements. .
In the shared screenshots, he wondered how many people were ready to attack the mosque at the time of iftar on April 13 in the city of Lille.
The French press reported that the Telegram groups in question have been monitored by police since late last year, and that intelligence units were aware of some profiles of members of the groups. (AA)
