Nice attacker treated for psychological issues before leaving Tunisia: Sister

TUNIS: The 31-year-old Tunisian who killed 84 people by driving a truck through a Bastille Day crowd in Nice on Thursday (Jul 15) spent years seeing psychologists before leaving Tunisia for France in 2005, his sister said.

"My brother had psychological problems, and we have given the police documents showing that he had been seeing psychologists for several years," Rabeb Bouhlel, Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel's sister, told Reuters.

Bouhlel's father told French television that the family had sought medical treatment after his son had a breakdown.

"He had psychological problems that caused a nervous breakdown; he would become angry, shout, break everything around him," Mohamed Mondher Lahouaiej Bouhlel told the TF1 and France 2 channels. "We had to take him to the doctor."


Bouhlel, who was shot dead by police, was from Msaken, about 120 km (75 miles) south of Tunis, and had last visited the town four years ago.

Former neighbours and relatives there expressed shock at the Nice attack, describing Bouhlel as sporty, uninterested in religion and from a regular family.

Rebab, Bouhlel's sister, said her brother had not been in the habit of calling the family. "But recently, over the past month, he was calling us every day and he sent us money ... He called several times a day."

Ibrahim Bouhlel, a nephew, said his uncle had never had money problems, and had told relatives this week that he was planning a trip back to Tunisia for a family party.

Rebab and Ibrahim Bouhlel said there was no sign of unusual behaviour or Islamist radicalisation when he called.

French investigators have not disclosed any direct evidence linking Bouhlel with jihadism, although the militant group Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack on Saturday.

TF1 and other French media quoted people close to Bouhlel as saying he ate pork and drank alcohol, behaviour that would be unlikely in a devout Muslim.

these type of people are very useful to the power that be ...to carry out their plan such as confiscate weapon [ law ] or take away people rights [ law for their own protection , etc.. ] it works same with FBI -- all the plots that they have prevented/foiled were started by them... find someone on drugs [ illegal or legal ] find out what ticks them off and offer them help to carry out their plan [ remember the one in NIce attack according to earlier report , his truck was filled with grenades and weapons , how can the gov not know someone is buying them in a country where sale of weapons is illegal ?]

a new report just came out the other day , that the french gov was suppressing infos about the muzzies torturing their victims at the concert attack a few months back [ bataclan ] , why to protect them so they/muzzies can continue to do their part ; they are the necessary evil in their plan [ power that be /PTB ]to conquer all human rights which they pretend to champion.

Well if I were the devil I would pick just that kind of man to do my bidding. The Devil is an opportunistic. Some people are dedicated to the devil from birth, others are hand picked for their capabilities to do his bidding later in life. With this said....

The US presidential candidates should be tested for their psychological well being before they put him or her in office. Seem like one of them doesn't understand what...criminal, treason and lying is. Oh,...it depends what is-is? No, I mean 'secure' is...?

OK Putin, stop laughing at me, that plane crashed that killed all US diplomats onboard are criminals that wanted to put my husband in jail for a little pity crime we did in Arkansas real estate development. That was nothing compared to white cops shooting blacks and pity the guns laws that allow such thing to exist.

[ That was nothing compared to white cops shooting blacks and pity the guns laws that allow such thing to exist.]

police has been shooting at every one -- just the other day a young white guy/late teen years was shot -- he was unarmed ; the media chose to ignore the story because white boy or brown skin does not cause sensationalism for their TV report as in black; who enable the police force to behave this way -- the politicians -- how politicians got such power -- you and the rest of the people who still think that voting will make a difference; but yet every politician ends up doing the same thing once in power .. putting a noose around our neck.

police force used to confiscate money [ cash ] from people whom they have stopped along the highway with full support from our politician/lawmakers because in their eyes , people who carry lot of cash are drug dealers [ no need to prove it in the court of law ] but now in okhlahoma the police have a device that can scan your bank card or credit card to confiscate your money if they think that you are involved in crime -- again no need to prove it in court first... you are not arrested , of course , just your money....
