This morning, Wednesday 28th September, six “Arab spring” migrants,four Tunisians and two Egyptians, died in a fire at the squat in the Parisian suburb of Pantin where they had lived for several months.
French Interior Minister Claude Gueant, who visited the scene of the fire, blamed the deaths on “networks of illegal immigration”. SOS SOUTIEN Ô SANS PAPIERS said that Gueant and Christian Lambeth, préfet of Seine-Saint-Denis, had “blood on their hands”.
