N'DJAMENA, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Six French aid workers detained in Chad on suspicion of trying to smuggle 103 children to Europe will face four criminal charges, including attempting kidnapping and fraud, their lawyer said on Monday. Abou Lamia, representing the members of the French humanitarian activist group Zoe's Ark, said that four Chadians would also stand trial for attempted kidnapping. Charges have been dropped against 11 suspects already released, a legal source said. (Reporting by Stephanie Hancock, writing by Daniel Flynn, editing by Tim Pearce)
