President LR of the Senate Law Commission, François-Noël Buffet, worked on “the riots of June 2023” After 80 hearings, several field visits and a consultation launched with the municipalities affected by these events, he issued, on April 10, a detailed report. The report is worth both the analysis of what may have happened during this week of chaos and by the firm solutions he recommends to avoid new outbreaks of violence.
“There is nothing to confirm that they will not recur in the near future,” says Buffet. In his eyes, clearly, the exclusion of marginality and social exclusiones does not justify the excesses of the establishment, he says. ‘In fact, almost three quarters of the minors referred to are enrolled in a higher education,’ he adds, ‘and the marginality seems to need to be nuanced.’ “A third of the 3,500 people arrested on July 4, 2023 are minors, the average age being between 17 and 18 years old”
