“The words and behavior observed could be criminalized as public and non-public insults of a racial nature, public provocation to discrimination and violence without racial incapacity, the Montargis public prosecutor’s office took up these facts”, wrote the prosecution, specifying that the maximum penalty incurred for these offenses and contraventions is three years in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros. He also emphasized that the“one of the people likely to be implicated” works at the Montargis court. One reason why he “immediately requested” a change of scene from the case to the public prosecutor’s office in Orléans.
Saturday morning, the Minister of Justice, Eric Dupond-Moretti, spoke on“absolutely unacceptable”.
The Minister of Justice announced that he had “asked the heads of the Orléans Court of Appeal for an immediate report with a view to suspension as a precautionary measure” of this official.
After the broadcast of the sequence, the outgoing National Rally deputy for Loiret, Thomas Ménage, assured Saturday on France 2 that he had contacted the Audiovisual Communication Regulatory Authority (Arcom, the former CSA). He accuses the show of having concealed the fact that the caregiver is, according to him, “an activist of the Communist Party, of the New Popular Front”.
“It is still very embarrassing that during an election period, a report on the public service does not say that this person is fighting against the National Rally, militates, distributes leaflets from the Communist Party”he continued, adding that “if there are racist remarks, we condemn them.”
Concerning the remarks broadcast in the report‘”Correspondent”, the far-right elected official estimated that they were “intolerable”before qualifying: “I don’t want us to let a particular case, a neighborhood conflict, tarnish all of the RN voters who defend a republican and patriotic project,” concluded Thomas Ménage.
