TERRORISM, ORGANIZED CRIME: WHERE DO THE WEAPONS COME FROM? | M6 | Zone Interdite

For several years, the networks that supply thugs with weapons have widened their customer base: they now supply terrorists like the Kouachi brothers and their accomplice Amedy Coulibaly. Between the three of them, they accumulated an arsenal fit for war: automatic pistols, several types of Kalashnikov assault rifle, a grenade-launcher, sticks of explosive and smoke bombs. We acquired such weapons after an investigation that lasted more than a year. We worked back up the network of arms traffickers, infiltrated them, from Belgium to the Balkans. How do gangsters and terrorists procure all these weapons? How do they find their way onto our territory? Who organizes the trade? From the French suburbs to the Balkans, we delve into the arms traffic that is corrupting our country.
