Condemned

Response to this claim

Laurent Nuñez is responsible for serious injuries to protesters because he ordered police to use weapons he knew could mutilate.

“We now believe it is imperative to target the person responsible for the mutilations and the massive damage, namely the interior minister, Laurent Nuñez (Translated from French. Original: nous pensons aujourd'hui qu'il est impératif de viser celui qui est à l'origine des mutilations et des dégâts massifs, à savoir le ministre de l'Intérieur Laurent Nuñez)”

Why we used this label

The reference point is the use of crowd-control weapons such as grenades by French police and gendarmes, under Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez's orders, that seriously injured protesters since mid-September 2026. Alimi holds Nuñez personally responsible for the injuries and says the lawyers will seek his prosecution, which condemns the use of force under scrutiny.
