Question 10878 — places of deprivation of liberty

Summary

Mr. Aly Diouara draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the situation at the Bobigny judicial court following allegations of rape against two police officers, now indicted and imprisoned, as well as the discovery of a video on the phone of one of them. The MP visited the site on October 31, 2025 at 4:30 p.m.; after a few minutes of waiting, he was able to visit the premises in the presence of the Bobigny prosecutor and journalists. He noted unsanitary and smelly premises, the impossibility of obtaining quantified answers concerning the number of cameras in operation and the exact number of agents night and day, as well as the existence of three cells dedicated to women, including one collective. Access to the cell where the complainant was allegedly detained was refused for the purposes of the investigation, with entry being barricaded by chairs and not allowing useful material checks to be carried out. These findings are part of a history of recurring alerts relating to the state of the depot, its conditions of detention and its monitoring methods, regularly reported by the local section of the Lawyers' Union and by other actors in the field. If he reaffirms the presumption of innocence due to the persons accused, Mr. MP underlines that the dignity of people deprived of their liberty, the traceability of operations and the transparency of procedures constitute imperative obligations of the State. He therefore asks what immediate measures the Government is implementing to ensure the complete and sealed conservation of all evidence, in particular video recordings, service registers, schedules and media. digital assets seized, as well as securing the chain of custody. He would like to know if a specific emergency plan for Bobigny will be decided, which could go as far as a temporary closure and a return to standards under the control of an independent mission associating, if necessary, the General Controller of places of deprivation of liberty (CGLPL), the bar and authorized associations such as France Victimes, the Observatory international prison system and the Saint-Denis Women's House, with a public work schedule and the regular publication of verifiable indicators relating to detention conditions and video protection devices. Finally, he questions the minister on the possibility of a national audit of places of deprivation of liberty under the control of the national police, including the publication, site by site, of staffing data, video protection, controls and incidents, as well as the identification of hierarchical responsibilities in the event of a proven failure. He thanks the Minister for kindly specifying the commitments made, those responsible identified, the deadlines announced and the terms of publication of the results of administrative and judicial investigations, so that the National Assembly and the public are informed as soon as possible, while respecting of the presumption of innocence and the protection due to the complainant.
