A policeman taken into custody. The official suspected of having killed the young man was placed in police custody for “intentional homicide”, as part of an investigation entrusted to the general inspectorate of the police (IGPN). A second investigation was also opened, for “refusal to comply” and “attempted intentional homicide on a person holding public authority”.
Gérald Darmanin evokes “extremely shocking images”. The video filmed by a witness of the scene is “apparently not in line with what we want in the police”said the Minister of the Interior. “If the pictures are confirmed, at no time is a gesture like the one we have seen justified”he added.
