According to AFP, the man resembling Amedy Coulibaly appears on the video that was posted online, and claims he coordinated his actions with brothers Cherif Kouachi and Said Kouachi , who are suspected of having killed 12 people in the attack on Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine on Wednesday.
A text at the start of the video says the man is Coulibaly, and that he was responsible for the killing of a policewoman in the southern Paris suburb of Montrouge on Thursday and the attack on a Jewish supermarket in eastern Paris on Friday, in which he took several hostages.
Coulibaly died in a shootout with police at the supermarket, where four hostages were killed.
Speaking into the camera, the man said he had “declared allegiance” to “the Caliph of Muslims Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi”, the leader of Islamic State.
“If you attack the caliphate, we will attack you,” the man in the video footage said.
