The policeman denies having told Nahel “you are going to take a bullet in the head”
The investigation continues to try to understand the facts relating to Nahel’s death. Before the IGPN, the police officer responsible for the fatal shot denied having pronounced the sentence “you are going to take a bullet in the head”, writes this Thursday the newspaper The Parisian, who obtained a transcript of the agent’s statements. During his hearing by the General Inspectorate of the National Police, Florian M. assured that he had yelled at Nahel to cut off the contact and confirmed that he had repeatedly hit the windshield of the car. The officer further stated that as of June 27, he was on “his ninth day in a row.” Yesterday, the Minister of the Interior was also heard by the Senate Law Commission. Gérald Darmanin announced in particular that the IGPN and its counterpart for the gendarmerie, the IGGN, have been seized of 10 investigations since the start of the urban violence on June 27, in particular in Marseilles where a man lost his life and in Mont- Saint-Martin, after the serious injury of a man to the head.
Ariane 5 bows out in the most beautiful way. After 27 years of service and two postponements of its final flight, the rocket took off successfully at 7 p.m. (midnight in Paris) from the Guiana Space Center in Kourou. The French military communications satellite (Syracuse 4B) and the German experimental satellite separated from the launcher after about thirty minutes to be placed in orbit. This farewell flight will be followed by long months of emptiness while waiting for the future Ariane 6 – at best at the end of 2023 – whose deployment is suffering from cumulative delays.
Alain Delon’s family is worried. Is he under control? His children filed a complaint on Wednesday against the actor’s companion for acts of moral harassment and misappropriation of correspondence, announced their lawyer Christophe Ayela. “I suspect an abuse of weakness and I count on the investigation to establish it”, added the council, specifying that the sacred monster of the cinema, aged 87, had joined the complaint by a written statement. “Since the cardiovascular accident of Mr. Alain Delon intervened in 2019”, this woman “who moved in with him, is more and more aggressive, denigrating and offensive towards him, and towards his children” , said the lawyer in particular.
