On 13 June 2016, a police officer and his partner, a police secretary, were stabbed to death in their home in Magnanville, France, located about 55 km (34 mi) west of Paris, by a man convicted in 2013 of associating with a group planning terrorist acts. Amaq News Agency, an online outlet said to be sponsored by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL),[3] said that a source had claimed that ISIL was behind the attack,[4] an assertion that was later validated.[5]
Prosecutor François Molins said the attacker, Larossi Abballa, appeared to be acting on a recent general order from Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to "kill miscreants at home with their families" during the month of Ramadan.[2] On 18 June, prosecutors charged two men, on suspicion that Aballa was not acting alone. One of them was released seven months later, in January 2017, under court-supervised parole.[6]
