Two Moldovan citizens arrested for painting blue Stars of David on the facades of buildings in the middle of the night confessed that they were paid "a small amount of money" by a Russian to do it. They were placed in a temporary detention center after the prosecutor quickly closed the case and ordered their deportation.
More than 200 similar signs have since been discovered in southern Paris. Two other suspects were arrested and "quickly left France".
