“The dismembered carcass” was discovered on Sunday morning by “the security guard of the mosque and the president of the association,” Sofyane Talibi, general secretary of the association, told the AFP news agency. “The authorities are taking the matter very seriously. We have confidence in the investigation.”
Based on surveillance camera footage, the association stated that the dead animal was left there on Saturday evening at 10:30 p.m. “The horror that worshipers, including children who came to pray, were confronted with will continue to resonate in our community for a long time,” the association said in a statement on Facebook. In it she also criticizes the Islamophobic discourse of some politicians and journalists in France.
