‘Charlie Hebdo’ giving $4m to victims

Charlie Hebdo, the satirical newspaper whose staff was decimated by Islamic extremist gunmen and then beset by internal tensions over an unexpected influx of donations and readers, said yesterday it will turn over all the money to victims of the three days of attacks in January.

A pair of French-born brothers killed 12 people — most of them journalists — during an editorial meeting on January 7.

The publication was targeted for its caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad. The three days of attacks, co-ordinated with a third man targeting a kosher supermarket and policewoman, left a total of 17 dead before the gunmen were shot to death in police raids.
