Eric Dupond-Moretti "is no longer an interlocutor for us", declare the two main unions of magistrates who accuse the Minister of Justice of using his prerogatives as minister "to settle accounts", after the administrative investigation opened against prosecutors of the National Financial Prosecutor's Office (PNF).
In 2014, the PNF opened a preliminary investigation to understand who had informed Nicolas Sarkozy's lawyer that he was being tapped.
Among the telephone bills of magistrates which had been analyzed for this purpose, were those of Eric Dupond-Moretti.
The Syndicat de la magistrature (SM) and the Union Syndicale des Magistrates (USM) call on the President of the Republic to put an end to “such confusion between private interests and the public interest at the top of the State”.
