And butler to the Prime Minister was placed in police custody Thursday evening with more than 50 grams of cocaine in his possession.
According to information from Parisian a you FigaroVincent P., 26 years old, was arrested Thursday November 7 around 10:45 p.m., rue des Petites-Écuries in Paris, in the 9th arrondissement in the middle of a transaction cocaine. It was the anti-crime squad that arrested him in the act and discovered 28 canisters of white powder (i.e. 51 grams) in the trunk of the butler's scooter. In resale price, this comes to around 3,300 euros. A sum of 1,400 euros was also found on him.
Bad timing
After this discovery, members of the brigade carried out a search of the person's home and found his accreditation badge in Matignon. This find clearly confirms his function as butler at Matignon. He would specifically be responsible for managing meals at Matignon and would have been in post there since 2022. The young man had been on sick leave since March 2023, renewed until May 2025.
Coincidence of the calendar: this arrest took place the day before day when the Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau and his Justice counterpart Didier Migaud detailed in Marseille the government's new plan to fight drug trafficking.
