« I was arrested by a person who had a political message to pass, summarizes the minister. I had come to make contact with a club that defends values in which I recognize myself. It is located a few steps from the heart of the next Paris 2024 Olympics and I want to support it. I’ll be back… “explained the Minister to the Parisian.
“There was a troop effect, it got a little worse, in Macron mode, resignation and the police took responsibility for exfiltrating him from the stadium“, told AFP the entourage of the minister, in the midst of a challenge to the pension reform carried out by the government.
The investigation was entrusted to the Territorial Security of Seine-Saint-Denis. The president of the French Football Federation, Noël Le Graët, apologized on Saturday while the Red Star club promised to impose sanctions.
