Police maintained a heavy presence Saturday near the Dammartin-en-Goele printworks, the scene of Friday's stand-off in which brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi were shot dead by French security forces. The brothers have been named as suspects in Wednesday's deadly attack on satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris. Police conducted road checks and diverted traffic away from the printworks where the brothers had holed themselves up. The Kouachi brothers were surrounded by special forces at the plant Friday and reportedly opened fire at police as they exited the facility. A worker and his son had barricaded themselves in the same building, and were initially believed to have been held hostage by the two gunmen. It turned out that the two did not know of their presence. Friday's events played out in two different locations: aside of Dammartin, there was a hostage situation in Paris' Porte de Vincennes neighbourhood, where gunman Amedy Coulibaly was killed by police after he took hostages at the 'Hyper Cacher' kosher grocery store. Four of the hostages were killed while the others were freed.

FOUR people have been detained over their connections to one of the jihadists who carried out the Paris attacks in January, a judicial source says.
The four are said to be friends with Amedy Coulibaly, who killed four people at a Jewish supermarket and a policewoman during the January 7-9 attacks.
Europe 1 radio reported that one of those detained was a policewoman posted at Rosny-sous-Bois just outside Paris who converted to Islam two years ago.
She was suspended from her duties in early February.
She was detained along with her boyfriend, a man said to have been close to Coulibaly and who is also wanted on separate drug charges.
Phone records indicate he was in close proximity to Coulibaly shortly before the attack on the supermarket.

One of the biggest demonstrations in Toulouse's history took place on Saturday when over 100,000 people rallied in support of those killed in the attack on Charlie Hebdo's Parisian offices. Supporters of all ages and from all sectors of society held up pictures of the victims and displayed the magazine covers of Charlie Hebdo. Others held placards with expressions such as "They will not kill freedom" and "Continue the fight". A number of events in support of the victims are expected to take place throughout France, including a solidarity march in Paris on Sunday which is to be attended by a number of European political leaders. Twelve people were killed on Wednesday as gunmen stormed the Charlie Hebdo HQ in Paris. A police woman was killed on Thursday and four people were shot dead in a kosher grocery store on Friday. Police raids killed three suspects - Cherif and Said Kouachi, believed to be the shooters in the Charlie Hebdo attack and Amedy Coulibaly, the man believed to be responsible for the killing of the police officer on Thursday. Hayat Boumeddiene, partner of Coulibaly, is still at large and the subject of a large police operation.
Le Canard Enchaine, a weekly paper, said the man may have had access to his girlfriend's police barracks at Rosny.
No details have yet been released on the other two people detained.
Four other people were held for questioning at the end of January, suspected of providing arms and vehicles to Coulibaly. Others - including Coulibaly's girlfriend Hayat Boumeddiene - are thought to have fled to Syria.
Two people have also been charged over their links to the Kouachi brothers who carried out the shootings at the Charlie Hebdo magazine in the same week, leaving 12 dead.
Fritz-Joly Joachin was arrested in Bulgaria and Cheikhou Diakhaby was detained in Turkey - both believed to be on route to Syria, and extradited back to France.

CCTV footage emerged on Monday allegedly showing Paris Charlie Hebdo suspect Hayat Boumeddiene passing through passport control at Istanbul's Sabiha Gokcen Airport. Wearing the hijab, she is in the company of a male with long, black hair who appears to be in his 30s. The footage was recorded on January 2. Boumeddiene's boyfriend Amedy Coulibaly killed four people after he stormed a kosher supermarket in the French capital on Friday 9 January. He was shot and killed on the same day after police stormed the building. Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu released a statement on Monday saying the country was not provided with the intelligence required to identify and potentially arrest Boumeddiene at the airport. Authorities believe she has crossed the border into Syria.
