French Anti-Terror Police Join Investigation of Alleged Antifa Killing of Conservative Student

French anti-terrorism police have joined the criminal investigation into the alleged Antifa mob killing of a conservative student at a Lyon university last month.

Two more men were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of involvement in the killing of 23-year-old mathematics student Quentin Deranque, who was beaten to death last month on the sidelines of a feminist anti-mass migration protest on the Sciences Po university campus in Lyon.

This comes on top of the initial wave of 11 arrests, seven of whom have been charged for involvement in the actual beating, and another four on suspicion of having aided those who took part in the violence evade justice.

The two men arrested this week, aged 23 and 26, were detained by the Rhône Territorial Crime Directorate (DCT).

However, citing police sources, Le Figaro reported that the investigation into the pair was conducted in conjunction with the Anti-Terrorist Sub-Directorate (SDAT).

According to the paper, the anti-terror police force joined the investigation over the case’s “connections within far-left circles.”

Previous reports have claimed that multiple suspects allegedly involved in the killing were members of the Lyon-based Antifa cell, the Jeune Garde (Young Guard), founded by far-left La France Insoumise (LFI/France in Rebellion) MP Raphaël Arnault.
