If he had a precision scale with him, it was to weigh the drugs he bought and avoid being scammed. This is what this 29-year-old man explained to the police officers at the Laval police station (Mayenne) during his custody. He was arrested on Wednesday November 27, 2024, around 5:50 a.m. after a woman dialed “17” to report violence to the police. When a patrol arrives at the accommodation in Laval, they reconsider their statements. But the agents decide to check the man she implicates.
Ban on appearing at the home of the person who called the police
This Guinean is known to the TAJ (processing of criminal records). The police discovered that he was prohibited from appearing at this woman's home, that he was under an obligation to leave French territory (OQTF) in addition to being under house arrest. On him, they found, therefore, this precision scale, but also 10.2 grams of cannabis resin and the sum of €250.
The same day, he was presented to the Laval court to be tried in appearance on prior admission of guilt (CRPC), pleading guilty. He was sentenced to 3 months with immediate incarceration. A previous 3-month suspended sentence is also revoked. He found himself imprisoned for 6 months.
