Deadly attack against Ahmad Shahanah.
Turkey: Deadly attack against Ahmad Shahanah.
Henri Duflot's Office.
Hi, I'm Marie Jeanne. I think we have a problem.
Goodbye.
- Is not it a good day? - No.
I look for Henri Duflot and I can not find it.
Do you know where it is?
You are going to see him today, are not you?
Tell him I want to see him.
- Have you proposed to piss me off? - Yes. It works.
The death of Shahanah forces us to abandon the bargaining channel...
to contact Cochise.
So we'll use the message left in the train layout...
to organize a meeting.
Coordinates communicated by Cochise...
indicate the city of Jarábulus, north of Syria.
We have also been given a date, on October 31.
Other than that, there is nothing else.
So we have to find the way to contact him...
knowing that it will be on that date in Jarábulus.
Why Jarábulus?
Because the forces of the coalition are in Beyadi...
6 kilometers, ready to reconquer it.
And Jarábulus is defended...
by an Iraqi contingent of the Islamic State.
Cochise is Iraqi. It will support the morale of the troops.
Is there any place in the area where I can stay with him?
Here you have the point A...
where is the basis of the coalition forces.
Kurds, Americans, Sunnis, Syrians and some of our own.
It's our base camp. You will leave from here.
Here is the point B.
Here we will be escorted ours.
Here you will be left alone.
To point C, an old farm .
Cochise will depart from Jarabulus.
You will probably also be escorted.
And probably, like you...
you will leave your escort on some place on the shore...
So that no one will see you.
What will you tell your men? We have to offer you an excuse.
We are in it, this afternoon will have it.
So you'll see with Cochise here.
It is a neutral zone, where nobody dares to venture.
Neither the Kurds, for fear of the bullets of the Islamists...
nor the Daesh, for fear of meeting a woman.
No one should see you together.
No one should know that you speak.
The people who will accompany you, Henri, will know the truth halfway.
I repeat: half.
They will accompany you to point B, here.
They will let you go alone to the point C.
And wait for you to come back.
That is, from the point B I am alone.
I see myself with a superior official of the Islamic State.
My escort will be at 500 meters, right?
Affirmative.
Your man will also be alone and about to betray.
It runs as much risk as you.
I know it very well.
Having a source of this level in Islamic State is invaluable.
I think we did well in working with Saddam Hussein.
When did we help build nuclear power plants?
Yes.
You are going to retire with an operation that will go down in history.
And with one of my agents hostage of the Islamic State.
Henri, I'll tell you one time because I know that will suffice.
I will not talk about it anymore because I would be rude to you...
but I have to.
Forward.
This has nothing to do with Malotru.
You stay with Cochise to recruit him.
Not to ask you to release a hostage.
Do not mix it. Do not stop this operation.
Can be key.
Can even give a turn to war.
Do you understand? Give a turn to the war.
Beside him, Malotru is nothing. Nothing.
Do we agree?
- Annoy? - Not at all. Sit down.
I'm going to reheat the plate.
Glad to see you.
How are you, Marie Jeanne?
Not very well.
- Shahanah is dead. - I know.
Why do you smile?
Why? It's funny, is not it?
You leave and I stay alone with the Malotru case on top.
Surely it will take advantage of the death of Shahanah...
to prohibit new initiatives. I'll let you know.
If you were still in charge of the case, you would be able to face it.
I do not know how.
Do what you usually do with me.
- I do not think expensive. - Oh no?
Today they have killed Shahanah.
It was a burning nail.
It was a mistake to choose a guy as shady as an intermediary.
Normally, the middlemen of terrorists are usually, right?
I will not argue that here with you.
Okay.
Where?
Leave us a moment.
Not a case of hostage management, Marie Jeanne.
It is our agent.
Nobody knows and nobody should know.
It is also a mole and that, nor does our people know it.
Going through Shahanah was a madness. I did not agree.
So now we cut for the healthy.
Have you understood correctly? We cut through the healthy.
- Do we close the crisis room? - I have not said that.
If the negotiations have been interrupted, we leave it like this.
- That's what I say. - What if they go back?
- Without Shahanah? - Obviously, he is dead.
Keep me informed.
Mrs. Anselem.
Hello.
Some of my interlocutors do not accept the smoking ban.
I must confess that I do not insist.
- Then I can light one. - At this point...
The Kurds fight...
to liberate these territories from the occupation of the Daesh.
If they succeed, they can finally fulfill a dream.
Create a province autonomous Kurdish...
created on the model of Iraqi Kurdistan.
But most of the Sunni who live here...
will never accept Kurd occupation...
and the Turks either.
It is the Kurds who die for liberating these cities...
and they will not be able to stay in them.
Will have to propose compensations.
It's what we try to imagine here. Far from the fighting.
And are you achieving it?
If you succeed, you could aspire to the Nobel Peace Prize.
That's why they chose me. It is impossible to do so.
But you have to be able to say that you tried.
Let's get to the point?
Do not take it badly. I will not blame you for throwing it away.
Is that the microphone that we put inside no longer serves.
- Why? - Shahanah is dead.
What?
You were killed this morning.
Who murdered him?
Not known.
The modus operandi does not point to anyone obvious.
It's horrible.
Yes, especially since it was our only contact.
Do you think you can see the woman with whom you spoke in Gaziantep again?
I do not know how.
It was Shahanah who arranged appointments.
I know.
But there is no detail of that woman...
give you an idea how to contact her?
There is no detail that has not already given you.
He interrogated me every time.
If you can think of something, I am receptive.
What are you doing?
I am killing you.
It's a joke.
It is a medicine.
You are weak and you need to be strong.
Good news and bad news.
Good ones, my friends have I threw things in parachute.
A satellite phone, a map, clothes, food and water.
How did they know where we were?
GPS.
And the bad news?
If I saw the bag fall from the sky, will have seen it all.
We have to go.
- Where is the road? - Very dangerous.
We left the car here. "Let's go to the mountains."
I am very weak.
No, you're not.
I gave you medicines.
Give me your phone.
No.
- I will call my friends. - You will not call anyone.
My boss loves you. He wants to exchange you.
By whom?
FSB agents in jail in Ukraine.
I want to tell my boss that I'm out.
I said no.
What do you want to do with that?
Your phone.
Kill me?
You can not escape without me. I called someone.
- He is going to bring me a car. - Where?
20 kilometers.
Do not give me that medication again.
You need to walk.
- Or you will die. - I'd rather die.
Not true.
How are you?
Good. I'm almost limp now.
Come.
- Are we going to be many? - Only a partner will come.
- Where do I put myself? - Where you want.
Here.
- When are you leaving? - In two days.
We have an operation and I would like you to be our link.
- My boss is going to Beyadi. - Yes?
We need you to take care of him with trusted men.
Are my two cousins worth to you?
Very good.
Are you coming too?
If you want the operation to come out well, you better not come.
It's a joke.
You are very serious. You have problems?
No, but it's weird to see you here. So dressed.
Do you like it?
Yes.
Really?
I'm going to introduce you to Claudine. You will explain the mission in detail.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Have you explained something to him? - No, above.
- We will start from the beginning. - Yes, it is better.
I leave you.
You have not answered my question.
Do you also come with your boss?
Or maybe you're coming?
No, I did not, but he did. Well I think.
Yes.
How do you bring my application?
- I imagine you want the result. - Yes. Nothing at the moment.
To the niqab woman, with whom Nadia El Mansour was seen twice.
No one knows it.
We are still waiting for answers, but I have already probed many sources.
In Damascus, in Manbíy, which has been released by the Kurds, in Rakka...
And the result is nothing.
Nothing about a woman named Lely, married to one of the Islamic State,
Pregnant 6 months, susceptible to act as an intermediary.
No.
Do you want me to tell you?
Please.
I think you are in a way...
responsible for the death of Shahanah.
And therefore, of the situation of Guillaume Debailly.
Exactly.
Suggested that the channel of communication...
also serve to pass a message to Cochise.
The Islamic State police discovered that there was a traitor.
That we communicated with that traitor...
and that we used the open channel by Shahanah to communicate.
Outcome: Punished to Shahanah.
And the niqab woman surely have also executed her.
It's true.
But I also heard that were the Iranians...
those who killed Shahanah.
- Where did you hear it? - In the Iranian office.
- Clément Migaud? - Caroline Koch.
Reliability of information?
Coming from the Iran office, I would say that none...
but they would accuse me of viperine language...
so I will repeat what they told me.
- Thanks, Jonas. We're done. - You're welcome.
And do not worry.
I do not usually offend myself when they accuse me for nothing.
Can we talk?
You seem to know who killed Ahmad Shahanah.
The Iranian services.
Why do not I know?
I do not know, why would you know?
- Shahanah is important to me. - I did not know, I did not know it.
When we see each other, you do not talk about work. Only...
Okay.
And why did they do that?
I was a trafficker with the Islamic State.
They say they raided a Persian art museum...
and he sold it all to collectors.
We believe the Iranians sent a message.
"Our works do not touch".
Come with me, please.
In your listening to Samuel Gendron, the secretary of Nadia El Mansour,
Do they mention the name of Shahanah?
I do not know, I can prove it.
Yes, I would like to know if he spoke of Shahanah to his Iranian lover.
- Why would I? - Check it, please.
Okay.
And is there a relationship between Nadia El Mansour and Shahanah?
Does Shahanah's death mean anything to her?
Marie Jeanne, you have a call.
Marie Jeanne Duthilleul.
Someone wants to talk to Ms. Anselem.
Okay, give it to me.
- Say it? - Hi, I'm Nadia El Mansour.
Yes.
He asked me how to contact with that woman, Lely.
- Yes. - Just called me.
- Yes? - Want to see me.
The statistics are clear.
In 85% of cases in the than the Islamic State...
has relaunched the negotiations.
In 85% it was verified that they no longer had the hostage in their possession.
In 70% the hostage was dead.
I do not mention the percentages related to the cause of death.
Illness, execution, error.
And in 15% of those cases the hostage was missing...
or kidnapped by another group or had escaped.
I do not give you the odds of success...
of an evasion in full Islamic State.
Yes, yes, give them to us.
Only one case is known.
The one of a man who was not detained.
Only in house arrest.
- That is, zero percent. - Exactly.
How many cases of evasion? Of evasions that did not go well.
Nine percent.
Good. Then, summing up,
if reopening negotiations...
There is a 70% chance of being dead.
And 9% of you have escaped.
- With a 0% success. - Yes. Solo.
If he escapes alone.
What if they are helping you?
What statistic does it belong to? To the evaders or the liberated?
Thanks, Vincent.
Are not we going to the meeting?
There is little chance of having Guillaume.
Worth it.
After Shahanah's death, no one knows what they intend.
Restart negotiations or take revenge.
It is very dangerous to go without knowing anything.
I volunteer.
It's okay. I will tell Guillaume...
When we fool statistics.
We will open our ears.
Mobilize your sources...
and to all who are on the ground.
They try to find out if there is a hostage to the escape.
Jonas,
Sorry for the before.
If you have escaped, I will rescue you.
The FSB told me that here there was a battle...
and everyone left.
I called a guy, a jihadist I know,
And I told her I survived to this battle.
I want a safe-conduct to see my family...
and also a vehicle.
And why is he going to do it?
You owe me a lot. I saved his life.
And what does it matter?
I believed that all jihadists were kamikazes.
I thought so too.
Soon it will arrive.
Go to hide.
Catch this traitor.
Shut up and hide.
Look.
Do you want to die?
Shit.
Do you think they have the photo?
Now we will see.
You can leave.
My photo on all phones. Bad.
Why not mine?
Do not want people to know that a hostage has disappeared.
Hit me.
Change my face. Hit me.
With this face we do not have possibilities.
Stronger.
Fuck.
Slamming a door.
Come on, we do not have time.
No, leave it.
Come on, Daniel. Go Go.
Mr Duflot? You have a visitor.
- Visit? - His wife.
What happens?
- What happened to you? - Nothing nothing.
You feel like an old man.
Thank you.
- What is this? - I have struck myself.
I have appointment with the Director General to speak.
Receive me in half an hour.
What are you going to say?
- I do not want you to go. - It is not a good idea.
It is not a good idea to go to point of retiring.
Do you have a real date?
No, but I'll ask for it.
And you will receive me.
When I tell you that you can not nor get into the bath...
We'll see if he will send you on a mission.
Where is that mission?
Is it dangerous?
No.
But what do you want to show? It's stupid.
It's not absurd for someone. It is necessary.
Is it necessary to send you?
Yes.
- I can not believe it. - Thank you.
Why do you worry so much? Last year I went several times.
And you trained to fight?
I wanted to play sports.
Well go. If you always lie like that, I do not know how you've made a career here.
I have to go back to a meeting.
No, let me.
Earplugs?
No.
- Knitted socks at home? - No.
- Do you know that you are very strong? - Why?
People only know your nickname. The mule.
I searched the BDL registry to know your name and nothing.
I have drawn to Human Resources. No one knows your name.
I admire you.
I do know your nickname.
- Tell me. - The fool.
I will be brief, because I do not go long speeches, and already it is.
- No - What's up.
No, I've already said it all.
I do not know if there is any free quality in the list.
Kindness, intelligence...
moral rigor, humor...
Well, let's just say mood intent.
Intelligence I have already said.
Simplicity.
Severity.
And thanks for that, because we need severity.
Severe but fair. A good father.
Yes, it can be said that has been our father.
We would give everything for you and to please you.
- Then give me your youth, Marie Jeanne. - He has already taken it from me.
- I have given him my best years. - It is true.
I continue.
He has known us,
has been able to encourage us, to make us better.
Anyway, it has protected us.
So I say: Thanks, Dad.
- Thanks, Dad. - Thanks Dad.
Thank you, my children.
Thanks for this magnificent gift.
So I already know what I can do when I retire.
Learning golf.
Because they have been confused. What I do is fish.
- Fishing in the fountains. - That.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Bravo.
- Now in progress. - To the bed.
To work.
Mr. Duflot.
I have something for you.
Open it.
But I do not smoke.
Yes. The day before an operation.
How do you know?
I dedicate myself to espionage.
And how do you know that I I go to an operation?
I did not know.
- Well you caught me. - It seems.
Thanks, Mule.
You can do better.
Thanks, Daisy.
Thanks to you, Henri.
Do you have what I asked for?
I have it.
It is not done anymore.
It is now illegal.
The army stopped production in 1991.
By order of the Ministry.
- But I have been able to get it. - How did you do it?
I would not guess.
In the Dark web. In the Tor network. I paid for bitcoins.
No.
Do I tell you it's a joke or not?
I am hesitating. Give me that.
It is not cyanide because it has not been manufactured since the 60s.
It is a neurotoxic cocktail. It is effective in a few seconds.
How does it work? Shall I swallow it?
First you have to break the blister with your teeth.
If you can break it with your fingers...
contact with the skin has the same effect.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
We will say that it has been my contribution.
Come, do not put that face.
I had a great-uncle who was of the resistance.
They were given one when was in the Resistance.
I grew up with that story. It is a family superstition.
It reassures me to take her when I go on a mission.
Well?
Call the office and say they were right.
A hostage has escaped.
Can be our man.
We follow?
20 kilometers. On the left.
How many controls?
Only one before Tall Afar.
Okay, we passed that control and we waited north of Tall Afar.
We give them our position to to send us a helicopter.
Special forces?
Spetznatz, tough guys.
Where do I hide?
You will not like it.
Well, my friend.
I think the trip ends here.
What happens?
There is no way out.
What is your name?
Paul.
Ya, and I Vladimir Putin.
I have a wife and two daughters.
My name is Alexeï Klebnikov.
I have not seen them for two years.
Each month they receive a message that tells them that I am alive.
You will not like the next message.
And you?
A daughter, an ex-wife.
- And a girlfriend? - No.
Right now I am free.
Do not move, do not make a noise.
Maybe you get it.
If you get it, you can call my wife.
Of course.
If you give me your phone.
