Mathilde Panot condemned the annulment of the election of three rebellious mayors, which she attributed to irregularities in the lists of their opponents. She described the situation as a scandal and blamed the Rhône prefecture for its incompetence, stating that it had been alerted. She added that the residents of Vénissieux, Vaulx-en-Velin, and Saint-Fons should not suffer the consequences, and expressed her support for Idir Boumertit, Abdelkader Lahmar, and Hadi Mebarki. #Élections #Justice #Soutien (translated)

Paul Vannier stated that a new municipal election for an LFI town hall had been canceled in Rhône, this time in Saint-Fons. He argued that the Insoumis had followed the rules, that the prefecture had acted unjustly, and that a competing list had committed fraud, while the victorious elected officials and the residents were suffering the consequences. He questioned why these cancellations only concerned LFI town halls and what instructions had been given in Rhône, and announced an appeal. #LFI #élections #Rhône (translated)

Paul Vannier denounced an attempt that he deemed particularly malicious to associate the youth with the shootings, which he described as unacceptable, targeting a principal and a teacher.

He accused Attal of manipulation and asserted that he was indifferent to people, their lives, and their aspirations. #Justice #Éducation #Politique (translated)

These images at the very least raise questions (...) police services have the right to use violence but under specific conditions: strict necessity and proportionality. Eight investigations by the General Inspectorate of the National Police (IGPN) and two by the ethics department of the police prefecture have been opened in Paris since the beginning of the high school mobilization, announced the public prosecutor Laure Beccuau on BFMTV this Monday, October 12. #MobilisationLycéenne #IGPN #Paris (translated)

Press Briefs reported nearly 7,000 police custody cases, 86% of which involved minors, and indicated that the majority had not led to legal proceedings at this stage. The account described these arrests as a massive and unprecedented measure aimed at containing the mobilization of young people. Several cited observers viewed this as a form of intimidation, while Press Briefs believed this practice infringed on the right to protest and risked normalizing disproportionate police and judicial responses. The account added that the preventive use of police custody had already been documented during the Yellow Vests movement. Relying on independent press articles, Press Briefs relayed testimonies from high school students reporting violent detention conditions, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, forced undressings, and physical or psychological violence. A 15-year-old reportedly recounted being slammed against a concrete bed and hit on the head by police and then insulted. A complaint had been filed, according to the account, which also indicated that the police prefecture had not responded to Mediapart's questions about the reported statements. Mohammed, a 16-year-old high school student in Saint-Denis, reportedly stated that police had hit the bars of his cell during the night to wake up the detainees and had targeted him with a racist insult. The mother of Noham, also 16, claimed that her son had been hit in the liver and face after asking why he had been arrested. Adam's mother also denounced violence against young protesters. Press Briefs added that several teenage girls and boys reported sexist and racist remarks from police, and complaints had been filed. Anne Savinel-Barras, president of Amnesty International France, expressed her concern over the repression of the student movement, believing that the young people's demands for education and health were met with prohibitions on demonstrations and disproportionate police violence. The NGO stated that it would support people peacefully protesting and defend the right to demonstrate. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights also expressed concern about the situation in France and notably called for a proportional use of force. #jeunesse #manifestation #répression (translated)

Raphaël Arnault stated that Aix resonated antifascist despite the threats from the far right and what he described as a desire from the prefecture to silence dissenting voices. He indicated that the prefecture attempted to justify the ban by mentioning the far right's intention to defend its territory in Aix-en-Provence. https://t.co/E48676LNFL #Antifa #AixEnProvence #LutteContreLExtremeDroite (translated)

Many police officers are not identified. This is really a very significant number because there is no RIO ("referential of identities and organization," a badge that identifies the agents, Ed.), because there is no image, because the images are deleted. Often, the images are deleted because they are from the police prefecture or the municipality, and after 30 days, they disappear. #IGPN #violencespolicières #mobilisationétudiante (translated)

"I don't believe it at all. Stéphane Ibarra mentions irregularities that are not my doing, but apparently from the prefecture. I don't believe it at all," said Bruno Retailleau, LR candidate for the presidential election, on LCI. #ElectionsSénatoriales #Vendée #Irrégularités (translated)

The Fighters of the Liberation recounted that Paulette Besson, aged 23, had provided false papers to the Resistance without anyone at the prefecture of Savoie knowing.

Matthieu Valet indicated that he decided to refer the matter to the prosecutor of the Republic of Paris under Article 40 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. He stated that a "street reporter" had deliberately tripped a police officer the day before, at the Place de la Nation in Paris. According to him, this act could constitute aggravated violence against a police officer, and filming did not justify an assault. He estimated that the video, cross-referenced with the footage from the police prefecture's surveillance cameras, should allow for the identification of the person involved. He added that he would not let violence against police officers and gendarmes go unpunished. #Justice #Sécurité #Violences (translated)
