Question 20646 — terrorism

Summary

Ms. Marine Le Pen questions the Minister of the Interior about the broadcast of the call for witnesses in the context of the Islamist attack that occurred in Lyon on Friday May 24, 2019. The quality of the photos released by the authorities the day after the attack surprised everyone, leading people to believe that video surveillance only provided photos of very poor quality. The mayor of Lyon specified the next day that he had been able to see images of very good quality. Broadcasting a call for witnesses with blurry photos seems completely counterproductive. She therefore wishes to know why the authorities made this choice, which is completely contrary to any operational logic. Furthermore, it appears that the anthropological type of the individual was known to the police. She therefore wishes to know the reasons which pushed the authorities to make these choices which are clearly contrary to any operational efficiency and which, more seriously, certainly delayed the arrest of the individual responsible for the attack, posing a risk to the population.
