Is he really playing a role here?

Nobody knows.

But still it is that this candidacy makes noise.

Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat is known in Montbéliard where he founded the association 6toyissance, in particular to encourage people to vote.

He lives in Little Holland, one of the city's sensitive areas.

He is also the brother of Fatiha Agag-Boudjahlat, co-founder of the Viv (r) e la République movement and former national secretary of the Republican and Citizen Movement (MRC).

On Twitter, she attracts the wrath of Internet users to the point that she is forced to justify her brother's ideas.

"He no longer supports the state of the country"

“My family is not a cult, we all have different opinions, which makes family gatherings loud and often funny,” writes Fatiha Agag-Boudjahlat. And to clarify: "I would be very cheeky to prevent my brother from running for office, even if it is under the banner of the FN. "" The one who shows up for the RN is the one I'm closest to. The only one of my brothers with whom I talk about politics, education, justice. He has a more impressive career than mine, she continues in a series of tweets. He has been involved in associations out of altruism since he was very young. He's a fabulous father. And I love it. I'm afraid for him. Politics is dirty and violent. And he is sincere and he exposes himself. Because he no longer supports the state of the country, violence. "

6-He has been involved in associations out of altruism since he was very young.

He's a fabulous father.

And I love it.

I'm afraid for him.

Politics is dirty and violent.

And he is sincere and he exposes himself.

Because he no longer supports the state of the country, violence.

He thinks of his daughters.

Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat surrenders on Monday.

"I have to end my strategy earlier than expected," he told France Bleu.

He then revealed his goal: to become a regional councilor, with the RN, then to leave the party while remaining at the regional council "to make things happen".

It was the attacks on social media, he says, that put him off.

“My family was aware of my strategy.

But when I saw the violence of the reactions on social networks.

And when I saw people who share my values ​​collapse because of my commitment to the RN, I told myself that I was not going to push the game that far, just to have a position of regional advisor.

"

"Doubts about his sincerity"

Did Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat really bluff? Marie-Laure Duchanoy, president of the RN federation in the Territoire de Belfort, admits having "had doubts about his sincerity" as soon as she met him, "two hours before he was presented to the press" . Doubts all the more acidic as she hoped to be at the top of the list in the department (which she can once again believe in). "I shared it, but I was ordered to get behind him and campaign with", she explains this Tuesday to the Parisian. She will not finally have time to contact this "lightning candidate".

For Julien Odoul, it is not. "The pressure, the death threats, not only on social networks, pushed him on the one hand to withdraw and on the other hand to renounce his commitment by inventing his story", he laments to the Parisian . “He sensed an outburst, but he probably did not expect such a level,” adds the head of the list, who confides in having discussed it before with Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat. An infiltration? "He had no information, there was no meeting, he was the one who gave us information, photos, videos, of what was happening in his neighborhood…" retorts Julien Odoul.

The turnaround is such that Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat now calls for a vote against the National Rally. “This party […] has not changed compared to the National Front. He surfs on the hatred of the other, the theory of conspiracy and chaos, ”he explains to France Bleu. The activist even plans, he said on the radio, to write a book about his adventure. Her name ? “I infiltrated the National Rally. "Kamel Agag-Boudjahlat could not be reached: his phone number is no longer" assigned "and his accounts on social networks have been deleted. Julien Odoul, who has not joined him, insists: “The National Rally does not regret having trusted him. "
