Overview
- Laurent Nuñez announced on X that he filed a complaint on August 22 over Aly Diouara’s message declaring “Oui, LA POLICE TUE!” and alleging killings driven by racism and colonial nostalgia.
- Nuñez called the remarks “inadmissibles et inqualifiables,” saying they offend officers who work daily to protect the public.
- Diouara replied that “le temps des colonies est terminé” and said he looks forward to defending his statements in court.
- The Val-d’Oise prefect, Philippe Court, previously lodged a complaint against LFI deputy Aurélien Taché for a similar post linked to a May gendarme shooting that killed Gabriel Bée.
- Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau condemned what he called irresponsible anti-police attacks as separate judicial investigations into recent shootings continue on a distinct legal track.
