Darmanin denounces the “indecency” of certain politicians
Asked about this term, “Francocide”, the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, answered this Tuesday on RTL.
“I have no reaction because there is a lot of indecency in political positions,” he replied.
“I think that for a single moment politicians, or at least those who call themselves politicians, have to think about the consequences of their words, if only for the families who see their daughter’s photo circulating everywhere,” he added.
The minister stressed that the main suspect in the case was not known to the police, except as a victim of domestic violence. “Just a month ago she had the obligation to leave the territory,” he said, adding that “things were done in conditions, I think, unfortunately not foreseeable.”
“In addition to a drama that affects a family, there is a lot of indecency on the part of the people who transform this story into an electoral pamphlet,” Gérald Darmanin denounced.
The minister asked that the girl’s parents be allowed to mourn “in the most respectful way possible” after this “despicable tragedy.” The Minister of National Education, Pap Ndiaye, went this Monday to the Parisian school where Lola was educated.
