a parliamentary report points to numerous shortcomings

The parliamentary report in charge of shedding light on the assassination of Yvan Colonna, who died on March 21, 2022 in prisonnot, is clear: failures have occurred at all levels. CCTV cameras are described as inoperative, and the status of the attacker raises questions. Frank Elong Abea radicalized detainee convicted in a terrorist case, had recently been transferred to the prison.

Franck Elong Abé, a dangerous prisoner

Already recognized as a dangerous prisoner, he was not, however, placed in solitary confinement and worked as a domestic helper. The rapporteur denounces the role of the director of the prison. “The former director of the central house of Arles (Bouches-du-Rhône) was auditioned. As part of this hearing, she lied to the national representation by explaining that Mr. Franck Elong Abé had not been the author of any incident“, said Laurent Marcangeli, Horizons MP for Corse-du-Sud.
