Paris : French investigators on Sunday began questioning a suspect in the attack on troops outside the Louvre Museum in Paris, but the man has so far refused to speak, a judicial source said.

The suspect, believed to be an Egyptian national, was shot in the stomach and seriously wounded after lunging at soldiers with a machete during Friday’s incident.

 Investigators decided to question him in hospital after his condition improved, the source said. AFP
