For a week and the use of 49.3 by the government to approve the pension reform without a vote in the National Assembly, demonstrations have been daily in various cities in France. And many complaints are made on social networks about cases of police violence. A situation denounced by many Nupes parliamentarians.
“When a Frenchman hits another Frenchman, that there is one who is a policeman, the other who is a student, it is never proof of success. It is the mark of failure,” François Ruffin lamented this Tuesday night in France 5.
“There is almost a strategy of chaos that is set in motion,” denounces the deputy for the Somme, who sees in the actions of the police for a week “the return to the maintenance of order ‘yellow vests’ mode, with the arrival of the crippled and blind.”
The Defender of Rights says she is “concerned”
As during the yellow vest movement in 2018-2019, in recent days many cases of police violence have been reported in each demonstration, in particular thanks to the videos filmed by independent journalists in the processions.
A situation like that of the Defender of Rights, who says she is “worried” and “worried”, warned this Tuesday about the consequences of preventive detentions synonymous with deprivation of liberty and recalled the deontological rules in the keep order.
During the day, Amnesty International France also warned “about the excessive use of force and abusive arrests, denounced in various media.”
“They are no longer police officers. They are militiamen”
Again this Tuesday several cases of police violence were identified. In Paris, for example, a police officer threw a grenade into the air into the crowd, which exploded at the height of a protester’s head, according to footage captured by Blast.
“It will end badly. Emmanuel Macron is responsible for the disorder”, denounced Olivier Faure, deputy and first secretary of the PS.
“That is it: not content with despising the people, Macron reiterates his strategy of intimidating the people, like in the time of the yellow vests. Mutilate, is that the project? the rebel Maxime Laisney (LFI) abounds
“They are no longer policemen. They are militiamen. Urgency to dissolve the BRAV-M!” Thomas Portes also writes on Twitter, transmitting the images of the agents violently pushing Remy Businie, a journalist for Brut.
The police “have the duty to set an example” in the mobilization against the pension reform, said Elisabeth Borne during the day before the National Assembly, during the question-and-answer session with the government.
