The court of appeal ruled that the TAP had not committed any fault and that we cannot make the link between the video of Nordine Amrani partying in prison and the killing he subsequently committed.
The court ruled that the releasee had been subject to supervision”effective” by justice assistants during regular interviews.
The judges decided that the investigation had been carried out correctly since Nordine Amrani was summoned to be questioned by the police on the day he decided to commit these acts.
The civil parties are considering possible remedies.
A hard blow for the families of the victims
“We deeply regret that the arguments raised, based on concrete facts and a rigorous analysis of the obligations incumbent on the State, were not the subject of clear and detailed responses, leaving a feeling of injustice and disillusionment for our clients.“, indicates Mr. Wilmotte who ensures their interests.
“This case raises a fundamental question: do the obligations of the State towards its citizens benefit from the same requirements and rigor as those imposed on litigants?“, asks the lawyer. “Victims and their families have the right to expect rigorous and exemplary management of public safety, especially when decisions such as parole are at stake.“
The lawyer emphasizes that the aim is not simply to designate someone responsible, but “to have systemic failings recognized to prevent such tragedies from happening again in the future.“
The lawyer is disappointed. “This decision is a blow, but it will not distract us from our commitment to defending their rights.” Me Wilmotte wanted to thank the numerous supports his clients have received during this ordeal. “We hope that this fight can ultimately contribute to strengthening the accountability of public institutions towards citizens.“, finishes the lawyer.
