Reporter: We have also been learning more details about the attacker who hasn't
been named but has been identified as an 18-year-old Moscow-born. Prosecutors say
he had bribed his pupils at school with money and asked them to point out the
teacher he was targeting and went on to kill shortly afterwards.
ULIS News correspondent also reports that they have detected a text
claiming responsibility and a photograph of the victim were found on the attacker's
phone. The prosecutor also confirmed that a Twitter account under the name
Abdoulakh A belonged to the suspect. It posted a photo of the body of the victim and
a decapitated head minutes after the attack along with the message "I have executed
one of the dogs from hell who dared to put Muhammad down."
The prosecutor said the attacker had been granted 10 years residency in
France as a refugee in March and his half sister joined ISIS in Syria in 2014.
Here are some of the citizen attitudes towards the incident.

Reporter: According to the students attending the class, before presenting the
cartoon, the teacher reportedly invited the Muslim students to leave the classroom if
they wished but still, get offended by some. The murder reminded people about the
2015 Charlie Hebdo shooting in Paris which dozens were killed.

Reporter: There was an extreme controversy surrounding the Samuel Paty's

assassination. Although pupils and parents insisted Paty was not trying to provoke by
showing the cartoons. Others considered Paty's action was unacceptable as religion is
not something to be made fun of and no one should make fun of the faith of others.
The president of France, Emmanued Macron, bestowed the country's highest honour
