Paris attacker Samy Amimour buried in unmarked grave

27 December 2015 Europe

One of the men who attacked the Bataclan music venue in Paris on 13 November was buried on Christmas Eve in a northern suburb, reports say.

Samy Amimour was one of three suicide attackers who killed 90 people at a rock concert.

He was buried in a cemetery in Seine-Saint-Denis, where he grew up and where his parents live. Only a few people attended and the grave is unmarked.
