Four men have been accused of assisting the gunman who shot four hostages at a Parisian kosher supermarket this month.

The men – aged 22, 25, 26 and 28 – have received preliminary charges of association with terrorism.

They are believed to have provided Amedy Coulibaly – who shot a French policewoman a day before attacking the kosher Hyper Cacher store – with logistical support.
