Paris, Nov 14 (IBNS) One of the assailants in Paris reportedly blamed French President Francois Hollande for intervening in Syria's war while justifying the attacks they carried out in Paris on Friday killing more than 120 people and injuring over 200.

"I clearly heard them say 'It's the fault of (French President Francois) Hollande, it's the fault of your president, he should not have intervened in Syria'. They also spoke about Iraq," media reports quoted  Pierre Janaszak, a radio presenter, as saying.

A wave of synchronised attacks in six locations across Paris on Friday left more than 120 dead and over 200 injured. The  attackers reportedly shouted "Allahu akbar" during a rock concert and others in a suicide bombing near the national stadium.
