Police Foil Terror Attack In France

Police in France have foiled a suspected terror attack and handed preliminary terrorism charges to a man of Egyptian origin.

He said police identified the two suspects while tracking extremist activity on social networks.

"They had tutorials that showed how to make ricin-based poisons," Mr Collomb told BFM TV, adding that they had communicated via the Telegram encrypted messaging application. "We were able to detect them, detect this attack plan and were able to arrest them," he said.
