The victims’s severed head was attached to the factory gates, with Arabic writing scrawled over it, according to reports by AFP.
A source said, “According to the initial findings of the enquiry, one or several individuals on board a vehicle, drove into the factory. An explosion then took place.
“The decapitated body of a person was found nearby the factory but we do not yet know whether the body was transported to the place or not.
“A flag with Arabic writing on it was found on the scene.”

It was gathered that a suspect is currently in police custody and is undergoing some questioning over an involvement in the attack.
The attack came nearly six months after the Islamist attacks in and around Paris that killed 17 people in January that started with a shooting at satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said he would go immediately to the scene.
