Who is against the section of the Communist Party of Gentilly?
For the second time this year, the store window of its premises has been fractured.
It happened Thursday night around 10 p.m.
"We were alerted by neighbors who heard noise and saw people fleeing," says Fabien Cohen, secretary of the PCF section of Gentilly.
A new complaint must be filed, after the one that has already been drafted in January for similar degradations.
“On January 21, we were vandalized by individuals who cowardly attacked the windows of our section.
This night again, they put it back, continuing their work of destruction begun less than a year ago, ”the section wrote in a statement.
In reaction, she calls for "a republican outburst" and a "solidarity rally" which was to be held this Friday at 5:30 pm in front of the section, at 53, rue Raymond Lefebvre in Gentilly.
"Every time this happens at election periods"
Fabien Cohen considers that it is "very probably" a "malicious act of a political nature" and also recalls what happened six years ago, with the arrest of several members of the small student group of extreme right GUD (Union Defense Group), arrested after having attacked the same room twice with hammer and sledgehammer.

To his knowledge, the trial scheduled a year ago and postponed has not yet taken place.
“Each time this happens during election periods,” he notes.
The departmental elections in 2015, the departmental and regional elections this year, the presidential elections to come.
For once no direct link with the local, "but there is a deleterious climate", explains Fabien Cohen.
"If the neighbors had not been there, it would undoubtedly have gone further," said the section secretary.
"Too much is too much, we must put an end to this violence, to this anti-communism which recalls very dark times!"
"Denounce the Communists of Gentilly who assure that they" will not let themselves be intimidated ".
