Four people have been arrested in connection with the Toulouse shootings last year.

According to reports, the men were arrested in Toulouse on Tuesday on suspicion of being accomplices to self-proclaimed “Islamic warrior” Mohammed Merah.

The total number of men arrested in connection with the murders is now six: last year, older brother Abdelkader Merah and another from Toulouse were also charged with complicity in the attacks.

Merah, 23, killed seven people including three children and a rabbi outside a Jewish school, as part of a terror spree. Three French soldiers were also killed.
