The parents of a Syrian soldier allegedly decapitated by a French jihadist have taken their quest for justice to a Paris court where they gave evidence against their son's suspected killer, their lawyer said Tuesday, according to AFP.
The soldier, identified as Ghaisse M., was among a group of prisoners, including American aid worker Peter Kassig, decapitated by "Islamic State" (ISIS) terrorists in November 2014.
One of the killers was identified from a grisly ISIS video of the execution as Maxime Hauchard, a 24-year-old Frenchman from Normandy, and an international warrant was issued for his arrest.
French authorities have opened a judicial inquiry into "murders linked to a terrorist act" over the executions.
