For the latter, if his client fled to Spain before being arrested near Perpignan where he had returned, it was because he was preparing his surrender.
“He had to report to the police”
“He had decided to return to French justice, he had to report to the police, but that does not change anything in the file” he announces. While justifying his client’s flight: “If he fled, it was because he was also afraid of reprisals against him and his relatives, he waited for it to calm down”.
