France has detained 4 Algerian influencers for encouraging violent acts in France.

One of those arrested is "Doualemn", a 59-year-old influencer who was detained in the southern city of Montpellier after a video posted on TikTok. He was deported on a plane to Algeria Thursday afternoon, according to his lawyer, but was sent back to France the same evening as Algeria had banned him from its territory.

On Thursday, Sofia Benlemmane, a Franco-Algerian woman in her 50s, was also arrested, Lyon prosecutors said. Followed by more than 300,000 people, she is accused of spreading hate messages and threats against internet users and against opponents of the Algerian authorities, as well as insulting statements about France.

Arrested in Brest on January 3, Youcef A., 25, known as "Zazou Youssef" on TikTok, will be tried on February 24 on charges of justifying terrorism. Placed in pretrial detention, he faces 7 years in prison if convicted.

And "Imad Tintin", 31, was taken into police custody on Saturday in Grenoble for a video, since removed, in which he called for "burning alive, killing and raping on French soil." He will be tried on March 5 for incitement to acts of terrorism.
