An Afghani man who was recently flown from Kabul to Paris has been detained by French police over suspected links to the Taliban and after failing to comply with a quarantine order, authorities confirmed.
French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin announced on Tuesday that among five Afghan refugees who had been placed under strict surveillance by the General Directorate for Internal Security (DGSI), one refugee left the monitoring place “for a few minutes” and was taken into custody for questioning.
