In an Instagram story by former UFC fighter Zelim Imadaev, a Chechen teen was referred to as a “hero of Islam” for his act of beheading a French teacher recently. The event occurred in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, a commune in the northwestern suburbs of Paris. The teenage refugee was shot and killed by police shortly after the attack. Bloody Elbow was the first to report.
