The proposals must be submitted to the Director General of the National Police (DGPN), Frédéric Veaux, who will decide whether or not to validate them in fine.

Sanctions ranging from warnings to suspended exclusion days were proposed Tuesday during disciplinary councils in Paris and Bordeaux to which six police officers were dismissed after the Mérignac feminicide.

Four officers and commissioners including the departmental director of public security (DDSP) of Gironde, Martin Levrel, were summoned to Paris while two brigadiers were summoned to Bordeaux.

The two commissioners dismissed, Martin Levrel and the commissioner of Mérignac, appeared in the morning.

The Disciplinary Council proposed a warning against the DDSP and a three-day suspended ban against the commissioner of Mérignac, we learned from corroborating sources.

Only one brigadier appeared in Bordeaux

The officers referred to the disciplinary council appeared in the afternoon in Paris.

Only one brigadier appeared in Bordeaux, the other having finally obtained a postponement for health reasons.

The disciplinary council proposed against him a sanction of the "first group" which includes warning, blame and temporary exclusion of up to three days, according to the regional secretary of the Alliance union, Eric Marrocq.

"We have shown that the role of the hierarchy was largely insufficient in supporting this file and the management of our colleague," said Eric Marrocq, who defended him.

"It was out of the question for him to take on the role of lamp keeper."

Errors or errors of assessment

On May 4, in Mérignac, in the suburbs of Bordeaux, Chahinez Daoud was shot and killed before being set on fire in the street by her violent husband from whom she was separated.

Already convicted of domestic violence, the latter, who had just come out of prison, had again threatened his wife.

She had filed a complaint two months before being killed.

In September, a report from the IGPN, the "police of the police", had established that mistakes or errors of appreciation had been committed by several agents within the framework of this feminicide which had triggered a wave of emotion.

In its conclusions, the IGPN did not however recommend the summons before the disciplinary council, a decision finally taken by Frédéric Veaux.
