Overview
- The Tribunal correctionnel de Paris imposed an eight-month suspended prison sentence on January 12, 2026.
- The case concerns January 9, 2020 pension-reform demonstrations where two men, Moukran S. and Peter B., were hit by LBD rounds near Gare Saint-Lazare.
- Video and testimony indicated shots were fired from about two meters and eight to ten meters despite guidance to fire from 10 to 50 meters.
- The court refused an additional ban on carrying a weapon and approved non-inscription of the conviction on the officer’s criminal record, citing his service and the protest context.
- The sentence matched the prosecutor’s November requisitions, which rejected self-defense and deemed the shots legitimate yet disproportionate.
