Police in France have arrested some 20 suspected Islamists in dawn raids, French media say.
Several of the raids were in Toulouse, where gunman Mohamed Merah operated, but also took place in other cities.
Merah, who killed seven people in three separate attacks, was buried in Toulouse on Thursday after being killed in a shoot-out with police on 22 March.
Police have been hunting possible accomplices but sources said there was no direct link with the raids.
Merah's brother, Abdelkader, has been charged with aiding him and police are hunting a third man said to be involved in the theft of a scooter that Merah used in all the killings.
