The acts and threats “Islamophobic” have almost quadrupled in the first half 2015 compared to the same period last year (274 against 72), today announced the Observatory against Islamophobia, which establishes a direct link with the Jihadist attacks in January. This component of the French Council of the Muslim Faith (CFCM) prepares its figures on the basis of common complaints and hands identified by the Interior Ministry.
“Since the establishment of the Observatory in 2011, we n ‘ have never seen a phenomenon so high. This explosion can be explained by the terrorist acts committed since January, which can not justify the hatred of Muslims who are not responsible or guilty of such crimes, “said . President of the Observatory, Abdallah Zekri
Overall, the increase was 281% in first half 2015, with 274 anti-Muslim acts (including 78 actions: places of worship degradation, violence … ) and 196 threats (leaflets, insults …).
There is however a sharp deceleration in the second quarter 2015, which were reported 52 acts and threats, against 222 in the first quarter, in the wake of attacks in January in Paris.
According to Abdallah Zekri, these figures understate the reality of anti-Muslim acts, “15%” of them subject to any approach to the police or gendarmerie.
