Summoned at 1:30 p.m. Monday, the four demonstrators prosecuted after a demonstration organized on May 9, 2019 in Nice finally learned of the decision of the criminal court late in the evening.

And all of them were condemned.

Two students get two months in prison, like another person.

A history-geography professor leaves with a six-month suspension.

During this rally to safeguard public service, all were arrested after clashes and then taken into custody for "contempt", "rebellion" and "violence".

"Criminalization of demonstrators"

At the time, the video of the arrest of the history and geography professor had turned on social networks, some denouncing the violence of the actions of the police.

And it is in this context that Monday, the day of the trial, at the beginning of the afternoon, the unions Solidarités 06 and FSU 06 organized a mobilization in support of the four demonstrators, against the "criminalization of the demonstrators".

Exposing the idea that the Alliance police union had provoked them that day.

For its part, Alliance rejects these accusations and returns the responsibility to them.
