Charlie Hebdo: The Third Man [and the forth].

Just a few points on the #JeSuisMissing.

THE THIRD MAN

The Kouachi Brothers manhunt, was the biggest in French history - and with that in mind: where is  the third man? or even the manhunt for his capture? 

Police in France hunt three armed gunmen who attacked the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, killing 12, [Telegraph].

The police organized an enormous manhunt across the Paris region on Wednesday for three suspects they said were involved in a brazen and methodical midday slaughter at a satirical newspaper that had lampooned Islam, [New York Times].

At least 12 people, including four cartoonists and two policemen, killed by three gunmen at Charlie Hebdo magazine, [Al Jazeera].

Actually, there could even be a forth man, according to Paris Police Union spokesman:

The three men - described by a police union spokesman as “commandos” – are on the run after walking into the offices of Charlie Hebdo in Paris’s 11th arrondissement at about midday on Wednesday and fleeing in a getaway car driven by a fourth. [Guardian] 

First, the third man was reported to be Hamyd Mourad, 18, who was being touted, as the getaway driver:

  
 The Police Report:

 “According to authorities, the third and youngest suspect … drove the getaway car.”

That is, until his classmates started tweeting under the hashtag #MouradHamydInnocent: 

 “He’s in my class, and he was there for lessons this morning,”

Following 50 hours of interrogation, Mourad was released without charge.

As the Paris Police Union, spokesman said; three gunmen and one getaway driver. So, once again where is the manhunt for the third man? or the forth man; the getaway driver? Do you even hear it being mentioned in the news?

KOSHER SUPERMARKET

The death of Amedy Coulibaly, at the Kosher supermarket, certainly helped gloss over the third man, and in many articles it has been written in just such a way, to make you believe he is the third gunman, but that would be wrong.

WITNESS STATEMENT

Drawing on the witness statement of the police shooting: the witness, who refused to give his name, said the attackers were so methodical that he first mistook them for France's elite anti-terrorism forces:

"They knew exactly what they had to do and exactly where to shoot. While one kept watch and checked that the traffic was good for them, the other one delivered the final coup de grace," 

"I think they were extremely well-trained, and they knew exactly down to the centimetre and even to the second what they had to do."

The terminology, "down to the centimetre" is a rather odd turn of phrase. I imagine if I was filming a dramatic action scene for a movie, positioning, direction and markers would require, centimetre precision, but in terms of explaining a live gun battle - it's rather peculiar.    

DID THE FRENCH KNOW IN ADVANCE

Turkish intelligence MIT chiefs ordered officers to storm an Istanbul hotel where Hayat Boumeddiene had checked in - 48 hours BEFORE the Charlie Hebdo attacks.

JEAN-MARIE LE PEN: 

A man I would have little time for - fascist - right winger; that said, it doesn't prevent the man from giving a fairly honest opinion, on the Gladio style attack:

“The shooting at Charlie Hebdo resembles a secret service operation but we have no proof of that,” the newspaper quoted Mr Le Pen as saying. “I don’t think it was organised by the French authorities but they permitted this crime to be committed.  That, for the moment, is just a supposition.”
