The results of the graphological analyzes carried out in a renunciation letter sent on behalf of a municipal councilor at the City Council of the city of Coin-Lès-Cuvry (Moselle) demonstrate a theft of identity in this letter, which has prevented the elected representative since January 2024 from accessing the debates, he learned this Sunday, May 4.
Julien Ruaro, a 39 -year -old father, was presented in 2020 in the municipal elections in the only list in the race in this 800 inhabitants located about ten kilometers south of Metz.
Chosen, he quickly disappointed himself, within an assembly not accustomed to dissension, and denounced in 2021 in the gendarmerie of the facts of illegal taking of interest aimed at the first assistant, Régis Gauthier, a notary of profession, around a real estate project.
Only opposition voice
Other subjects, a possible embezzlement of public goods funds and questions related to roads in particular, still concern Julien Ruaro, who describes himself as “chosen independent” and represents the only opposition voice.
In January 2024, the mayor of the village received a letter in the name of Julien Ruaro, informing him of his resignation from the Municipal Council. “Without even trying to contact him,” she has resigned, regrets.
The elected official filed a complaint so that his identity theft is recognized and sent to the City Council a certificate in honor in this regard, without this having an effect. “Once a resignation passes to the mayor, it is irrevocable,” said the councilor in 2024, Anne-Marie Linden-Grupp. For the elected official, on the other hand, it is “serious damage to the democratic process.”
Provisional examination hearing before the Court
The letter included “44 target lines followed by an illegible firm”, set with a “blue pen”, according to the expert. All members of the Municipal Council were asked to be presented to the experience.
In the results of the analysis, consulted by AFP, the graphologist concluded that the mentions written by hand, particularly in the letter sent by the letter with recognition of receipt, “are not the work of the various comparison scripts”, namely Julien Ruaro or members of the Municipal Council, but “will be assigned by the hand of a third.”
Despite this, the mayor refused to reintegrate him. Therefore, Julien Ruaro obtained a hearing under procedures summarized before the Administrative Court of Strasbourg, on May 13. Two previous citation had been rejected by the court, especially waiting for this experience.
He hopes to suspend, awaiting the trial on the merits, this resignation and being able to participate again in the sessions of the Municipal Council.
