French authorities have honored a Mali-born employee who saved lives at the kosher supermarket attacked by terrorists as a hero and granted him French citizenship. Interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve praised the Muslim man for his courage and heroism during a ceremony Tuesday in the presence of Prime Minister Manuel Valls. Cazeneuve said Bathilys act of humanity has become a symbol of an Islam of peace and tolerance. Bathily is a righteous one among the righteous who should serve as a role model to our youth. Lassana Bathily enriches us by joining the French nation, said Pierre Henry, the president of the French governments refugee assistance agency.
