The police captain, aged 48, appeared this Tuesday before the Paris investigating chamber, to request his release. He is suspected of having, since 2016, taken advantage of his functions to make false documents, illegally consulted the file of wanted persons and attempted extortion.
The magistrates of the Court of Appeal confirmed his continued detention, agreeing with the opinion of the Advocate General who considers that "the risk of a repetition of the facts cannot be ruled out.” “The actions of this man only ended on the day of his arrest,” said Advocate General.
