Val-d’Oise Prefect Sues LFI’s Aurélien Taché for Saying ‘Police Kill Everywhere’

French left-wing lawmaker Aurélien Taché is facing a legal complaint from the prefect of Val-d’Oise after writing that “the police kill everywhere.” The prefect filed for insult and defamation, arguing the words smear a public institution and its officers. The comment, posted as Taché expressed support for a march honoring a 33-year-old man fatally shot by a gendarme, sparked swift condemnation across the political spectrum. Senator Bruno Retailleau said “nothing must be allowed to pass,” while police-union representative Baptiste Fabry called the remark “a shame” that damages the force’s reputation. Taché’s allies in La France insoumise defended his focus on alleged police violence, citing earlier cases such as Adama Traoré’s death in custody. The prefect’s complaint now places the dispute in the courts, adding fresh strain to already tense relations between security services and parts of the opposition.
