Since this Sunday, they have been hard at work. On patrol in the Moulins district, or in raid operations against deal points. Announced on Saturday by Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin, the CRS8 has arrived in the Riviera capital. More precisely to the west, in a district in the Republican reconquest zone undermined by drug trafficking. This is where shooting broke out on Friday, once again, leaving two people injured.
After Corsica, Limoges, Marseille or Nîmes, head for Nice, therefore. New mission under pressure for the CRS8, this “rapid support force” created in 2020 with very specific specifications. “It is a company dedicated to riots and drug trafficking. They are sent to particularly hot spots, to restore public order during urban violence and to fight against trafficking”deciphers Laurent Martin de Frémont.
A welcome arrival for SGP police unit FO 06
For the departmental secretary of the SGP police unit FO 06 union, this arrival is welcome: “Anything that can contribute to greater safety in complicated neighborhoods will go in the right direction. ” Issue : “We have the feeling that when there are problems, we do a “one shot”. We never give them time. It goes very well when they are there. But when they leave, it’s repeat!”
Good that “satisfied with the arrival of this CRS8″, Laurent Martin de Frémont therefore pleads for “dry, long-term workforce contributions, through transfers to Nice.”
The goal : “Ensure a constant presence on the ground and strengthen the investigation services. Then, we need legal decisions commensurate with the abuses committed.” This, in order to avoid a drift “Marseille style”.
