The judges of the Paris administrative court confirmed on Saturday the ban on a demonstration against police violence planned for the afternoon at Place de la République, we learned from the lawyer for the organizers and The police headquarters.

“Such a decision leaves a bitter taste of incomprehension among the organizers, feeling muzzled in their most fundamental right of expression”, reacted Me Lucie Simon on behalf of the National Coordination against police violence, composed of about fifty organizations including LFI, EELV and CGT. Requested by AFP, the police headquarters “takes note” of the court decision and “recalls that the demonstration is prohibited”.
