The investigating magistrates dismissed the case in favor of the gendarmes

The magistrates in charge of the judicial information on the death in July 2016 of Adama Traoré, erected as a symbol of the violence and racism of which the police are accused, have pronounced a dismissal for the gendarmes who have arrested, AFP learned on Friday from lawyers on both sides.

This decision puts a temporary end to a stormy investigation centered on contradictory medical expertise. But the lawyer Yassine Bouzrou, who defends the family of the young black man who died at 24 and who has long denounced the conduct of the investigation, indicated on Instagram that he was appealing this decision.
