The man and woman were arrested Tuesday in northern France, nearly a year after the attacks on the Charlie Hebdo newspaper and kosher store left 17 people dead, the prosecutor`s office said. The store attacker, Amedy Coulibaly, killed four people inside the market, and separately a policewoman, before dying in a shootout with police.
The prosecutor`s office confirmed that one of those arrested is Claude Hermant, an acknowledged mercenary, while the other is his partner.
