Lawyer Yassine Bouzrou believes that Cécile Gensac, prosecutor of the Republic of Nîmes, “Unfortunately does not have the hand” On the assassination of the assassination of Aboubakar Cissé, the young Malian killed 57 stabs in a mosque in the Gard. “(The prosecutor) is subject to the hierarchical power of the Minister of Justice, Mr. Darmanin, who made remarks sometimes controversial, sometimes divisive”he adds.
While the family of Aboubakar Cissé is preparing to file a complaint for justice to retain the terrorist qualification, the prosecutor of Nîmes dismissed this hypothesis during a press conference on Friday. “Very quickly, it appeared that the aggression was the result of an individual who acted in an isolated context, without ideological demand or link with an organization which would disseminate an ideological claim that it would intend to carry by intimidation or terror”she said. According to the prosecutor, the suspect acted under the influence of a “Obsessional desire to kill”without an ideological mobile identified.
Yassine Bouzrou regrets that the prosecutor has drawn up “A profile that does not correspond to reality”. He accuses him of delivering “Elements of criminal policy” while eluding the facts of the file. “What she does not say, or not enough is that the author of the facts had shown to his entourage a hatred of Muslims”he underlines.
The prosecutor insists on the absence of ideological demand and on the isolated character of the act, specifying that the national anti -terrorist prosecution has not retained the terrorist qualification but “Remote in observation” on this sensitive file. For Yassine Bouzrou, “Today there is an anti-legal criminal policy. Justice has its say. This prosecutor gives elements contrary to criminal law and judicial practice”.
