At the request of the Ministry of Health, the emergency doctor drew up a list of facts of radicalization and attacks on secularism in the hospital. He recommends strengthening reporting tools….
Although it is difficult to quantify the phenomenon, several cases of radicalization have been reported. That of Farid Benyettou, former preacher of the Buttes-Chaumont jihadist sector, close to the Kouachi brothers. “A crippled student at Pitié-Salpêtrière in 2015 (at the time of the Charlie Hebdo attack), he is suspected of proselytism”, comments Patrick Pelloux. In Marseille, at the Timone hospital, a case of radicalization was also detected. At the end of 2016, a surgical intern was arrested at the Turkish border and prosecuted for “criminal terrorist association”. He will be sentenced in 2019 to nine years in prison….
Several cases of proselytism within a health establishment have also been reported. “The other danger is a really fundamentalist fringe that knows why it is there, in the hospital…”, assures Patrick Pelloux. Since 2000, a nurse working in a department for patients with multiple disabilities in the east of France has expressed his religious beliefs to his team, leading to the conversion of one of his colleagues, and allegedly made anti-Semitic remarks.
In his report, the emergency doctor warns: “The health and social system is an objective of religions, in particular of a part of so-called political Islam.” And to cite the example of the Saint Camille hospital in Val-de-Marne, faced with a real problem: “After the closure of a mosque ordered by the Ministry of the Interior, 200 Salafists came to pray in the corridors of the hospital”, says the doctor.
Chaplains have also been able to “exceed their mission of supporting the patient in order to exert influence on agents and patients”, specifies the report. “Paediatrics, oncology, it is their field …”, supports the emergency doctor. “Radicalized imams have been able to preach an anti-French discourse to vulnerable patients, such as in psychiatry,” he adds….
