A MAN beaten up during violence in a riot-hit suburb north of Paris died of his injuries yesterday.

Jean-Jacques Le Chenadec, who was attacked on Friday evening and had been in a coma since then, was the first person to die as a result of the riots that began on October 27.

He was attacked as he talked with a neighbour in a public housing estate in the tough suburb of Stains.

His widow, speaking after meeting Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy, said of the aggressor: "I want these people punished."

The Interior Minister, "whom I support with all my heart, has promised to do everything in his power to help us," she said.

It'd *have* to be tough with a name like that...

Come on French government. Grow a pair. The more they coddle these thugs the more the danger to the French nation.
