The organisation Ligue de Défense Judiciaire des Musulmans (LDJM) went in the court accusing the magazine of blasphemy.
The case filed by LDJM, seeks the prosecution of a satirical magazine’s July 10 issue.
The issue, after protesters were killed in Egypt, headlined: “The Qur’an is shit, it does not stop bullets.”
The LDJM also sues Charlie Hebdo for “provocation and incitement to hatred on the basis of religious affiliation.”
Charlie Hebdo has a long reputation for being provocative.
In September 2012, the French weekly published blasphemous cartoons of Prophet.
In 2011, the office of the magazine was firebombed after it published an edition “guest-edited by Muhammad”, which the satirical weekly called Shari`ah Hebdo.
Muslims have campaigned for a UN resolution to ban blasphemy following repeated insults against Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and Islamic sanctities on claims of free speech.
