There was a clear failure in the psychiatric care of the radicalised suspect suffering from mental troubles who stabbed a German tourist to death in central Paris at the weekend, AFP reports citing France’s interior minister.
“There was clearly a failure, not from the point of view of his monitoring by the intelligence services, but a psychiatric failure,” Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin told BFM TV, adding the attacker had an “acute mental illness”.
“Doctors said on several occasions that he was doing better, was more normal and could be free,” Gerald said.
