Overview

  • The Paris Administrative Court suspended the expedited expulsion of Doualemn, an Algerian influencer, citing a lack of imminent public danger to justify emergency measures.
  • Doualemn, accused of inciting violence in a TikTok video, remains in administrative detention pending a trial scheduled for February 24.
  • The court upheld the withdrawal of Doualemn's residency permit but ruled that any expulsion must follow standard legal procedures, not emergency protocols.
  • Doualemn's initial expulsion to Algeria on January 9 was reversed when Algerian authorities refused his entry, intensifying diplomatic tensions between France and Algeria.
  • The Interior Ministry has one month to review its approach, while Doualemn's lawyers criticized the ministry's actions as politically motivated and procedurally flawed.
