“He, at some point, will have paid the debt he owes”: Mathilde Panot believes that Adrien Quatennens “is not finished”

The rebel deputy, convicted of violence against his wife and temporarily suspended by his group, “will have paid the debt he owes at some point,” the leader of the LFI group estimated this Wednesday in the Assembly.

The president of the LFI deputies in the Assembly, Mathilde Panot, estimated on Wednesday that Adrien Quatennens, convicted of violence against his wife and temporarily suspended by his group, was not “finished”.

“If you want to put an end to sexist and sexual violence in our society, if you fight it, it is because you believe it can end”, estimated the deputy from Val-de-Marne, during a conference with journalists from the parliamentary press (AJP).

“The Question of Rehabilitation”

“And how are they going to stop? Also thinking about the issue of rehabilitation,” continued the president of the rebel group.

“Yes, Adrien Quatennens admitted a gesture that he himself says is inexcusable, he accepted the legal and political consequences, and yes, I don’t think Adrien Quatennens is finished,” he said.

I think that at some point he will have paid off, in some way, the debt he has,” added the deputy.

Court in appearance for prior admission of guilt Adrien Quatennens was sentenced this Tuesday for “violence without disability committed by the spouse” between October and December 2021, as well as for “regular and malicious sending of messages” to his wife between August and September 2021. 2022.

“The investigation concluded what I had acknowledged: a slap given in the context of an argument, over a year ago and never reproduced, and the sending of too many romantic text messages following a divorce announcement. Misunderstood,” Quatennens said, who failed resigning his position as deputy.

Suspension from the LFI group

The approval hearing, which was held behind closed doors, did not reveal, however, the details of the facts. He was peacefully suspended by the LFI group for a period of four months, making his return conditional on “an accountability course on violence against women.”

A decision considered insufficient by his partners in Nupes, but also by the LFI deputy Pascale Martin.

“I should have been excluded from the group. I am part of the rebel parliamentary group so I assume this decision. But nevertheless, and I dare to use this word, it is a political mistake that we have made,” she said.- she told RMC and BFMTV.

Mathilde Panot also renewed her group’s call for a strong increase in the budget dedicated to the fight against sexist and sexual violence, up to “two billion a year”.
