Dead Boar Found at Mosque Sparks Outcry Over Anti-Muslim Act

The discovery in Saint-Usage follows a recent arson attempt at another mosque, prompting a judicial investigation.

The dead boar was placed outside a Franco-Turkish association that includes a mosque in the village of Saint-Usage, Côte-d’Or.
Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau condemned the act as 'intolerable' and 'barbaric,' linking it to anti-Muslim sentiment.
The incident occurred just two days after an attempted arson at the Assounna Mosque in Amiens, which is also under investigation.
Local gendarmerie responded immediately, and a judicial inquiry has been launched to identify those responsible.
Minister Retailleau expressed solidarity with the Muslim community, emphasizing the cowardice of attacks on places of worship.
