“Today, we have exceeded the unbearable”, testifies the senator Victorin Lurel

The former overseas minister, Victorin Lurel, is not surprised after the public prosecutor of Basse-Terre spoke about the climate of violence reigning on the island. “I had to live, with many others, this type of thing from 2009. It is the first time that a public prosecutor, a magistrate, clearly says what everyone knows and that everyone world evokes quietly. It is true that it is a rather classic phenomenon that we find in the suburbs as in Marseille. But this is the first time that we dare to say it “, reports Victorin Lurel, senator (PS) of Guadeloupe.

On the images shot by the franceinfo teams, it is clear that a climate of fear reigns in Guadeloupe. “The State had estimated that over the last twenty years had not reached the threshold of bearable disorder. Today, we have exceeded the unbearable. We must dismantle gangs, trafficking, gangs and it’s true that we put the accent for the first time on complacency, on benevolence”, adds Senator Victorin Lurel.
