Ahmed Merabet is the "face of the Republic"


Posters "I am Ahmed," have appeared in Livry-Gargan northeast of Paris. Hundreds of people paid tribute Sunday to Ahmed Merabet. The sergeant of the police station of the eleventh district of the capital was wounded and killed in cold blood by Wednesday Kouachi brothers on his way to the scene of the attack after the massacre of Charlie Hebdo.


It is "now the face of the French Republic for all," said the president of the National Assembly Claude Bartolone.


Merabet Ahmed had celebrated her 41 years on February 8 and was about to become a police officer, according to his brother Malek on Saturday called for not to be lumped with the Muslim religion.


"French of Algerian origin and Muslim, (it was) very proud to call Ahmed Merabet, to represent the French police and defend the values ​​of the Republic: liberty, equality, fraternity," Malek said Saturday Merabet . (...) "I now address all racist, Islamophobic and anti-Semitic: do not mix and extremist Muslims. Fools have no color, no religion. I would still make a point: stop making amalgam of starting wars, burn mosques or synagogues or attack you people. This will not bring back our dead, and that does not appease the families. "


Merabet Malek said he was haunted by the last words of his brother, whose execution was filmed and broadcast on social networks, to the chagrin of his family torn apart by this tragedy.
