The 28th Paris Book Fair, which takes place from the 14th to the 19th, has been evacuated yesterday on sunday the 16th, at 5 pm.
The Exposition has been closed for about 2 hours, since the policemen were checking trough the « Parc des expositions », in Versailles.
Indeed, someone called the police at the end of the afternoon in order to inform that a bomb was present in the Paris Book Fair. Because of the recent controversing about this event, the police took the notice seriously.
It is true that Palestinian governments and intellectuals declared last week that they were opposed to the representation of Isreal at Paris Book Fair, for the 60th birthday of the promised land.
But the policemen didn’t find anything and the anonymous phone call was probably a fake.
