In the context of the murder of the Philippine student, the boss of the RN Jordan Bardella castigates “irresponsible justice”, while the Republican deputies have tabled a bill to significantly extend the detention period of “dangerous illegal aliens”.
“Justice was irresponsible, but the State also failed (…) How many tragedies do we need for our political leaders to become aware of what is happening today in the country?” launched the president of the National Rally on France 2.
The suspect in the murder of Philippine, killed last week in Paris, is a 22-year-old Moroccan already convicted of rape, under an obligation to leave the territory, and who had just been released from detention.
“Judicial laxity has dramatic consequences on insecurity,” continued Jordan Bardella, meeting on October 31 at the National Assembly, for the examination of a proposed RN law proposing to systematize expulsions of adult foreigners definitively convicted of a crime or misdemeanor “punishable by a sentence of at least three years of imprisonment”.
“We consider that from the moment a foreigner on French soil commits a crime or misdemeanor, he must be immediately expelled,” he added.
“135 days instead of the 90 currently planned”
The deputies of the Republican Right group, led by Laurent Wauquiez, had already responded by announcing a little earlier the tabling in the Assembly of a bill “aimed at better protecting society from dangerous illegal aliens and facilitating their expulsion” .
They therefore propose to increase “the maximum period of detention of illegal immigrants to 135 days instead of the 90 currently planned”, or even to 210 days “for a foreigner convicted of a crime” – a period already applied to the perpetrators of terrorist acts. .
The right-wing deputies also want to restrict the role of the judge who must validate each extension of detention, by removing “the obligations of justification up to 90 days”.
After these 90 days, they also want to remove from the judge the possibility of releasing a foreigner before the maximum period, as long as his country of origin has not given the assurance of providing “within a short period of time” a permit. pass consular permitting his expulsion.
The man suspected of having raped and killed Philippine was released from the Metz administrative detention center on September 3, a few days before Morocco responded positively to the request from the French authorities.
