Question 16391 — security of property and people

Summary

Mr. Francis Vercamer draws the attention of the Keeper of the Seals, Minister of Justice, regarding the protection of firefighters in the event of a complaint being filed. Many men and women holding public authority are in fact subject to daily attacks, as part of their missions. This is the case, for example, of firefighters, who are victims of verbal and physical violence, death threats or even throwing weapons. projectile. The note from the National Observatory of Delinquency and Penal Responses (ONDRP), published in December, reports an increase of 23%, in one year, in the rate of attacks on firefighters in the exercise of their duties. In 2017, 2,813 firefighters reported being victims of an attack during an intervention. In 2016, this number rose to 2,280. However, the lack of preservation of the anonymity of the complainants may discourage some of them from filing a complaint for fear of reprisals from the attackers, particularly towards their families. In order to avoid such a pitfall and to guarantee firefighters access to justice like all citizens, he asks whether the Government would be in favor of anonymizing the filing of complaints by persons holding public authority.
