Interior Minister Files Complaint Over Radio Nova Comedian’s ‘Daesh’ Slur Against Police

The move follows a broadcast aired days before the 13‑November commemorations that drew union demands for regulatory action.

Overview

  • Pierre-Emmanuel Barré, on Radio Nova’s show La Dernière, called police and gendarmes “rapists” and “murderers” and compared them to “Daesh with job security.”
  • Laurent Nuñez sent a formal complaint letter to the Paris prosecutor on Monday evening after the video was posted online, his entourage confirmed.
  • The police union Un1té condemned the remarks as “monstrous” and urged both Arcom and prosecutors to intervene immediately.
  • The segment also targeted Nuñez personally over his tenure leading the Paris police prefecture, further inflaming reactions.
  • Widespread criticism appeared on social networks, including from officer Abdoulaye Kanté, while no regulatory sanction or judicial decision has been announced.
