The figure of the "yellow vests" Jérôme Rodrigues, arrested on Saturday near the Elysee Palace in Paris, denies being the organizer of the anti-pass demonstrations banned by the prefect of police and considers himself a "political prisoner", indicated Sunday his attorney in a statement.
Jérôme Rodrigues, placed in police custody for "organization of a prohibited demonstration" and "participation in a group formed with a view to committing violence", "wishes to indicate that he is in no way the organizer of this demonstration" , writes Me David Libeskind in this press release.
He claims to be the victim of harassment by the police.
“For many years he has only relayed information on his official Jerome Rodrigues Facebook page on the demonstrations,” he explains, adding that he also filmed the processions.
"However, for several years my client has been harassed by the police and the Paris police headquarters through repeated identity checks", adds the council, observing that his client had "a criminal record judicial virgin" and had "never been the subject of any conviction".
“Jérôme Rodrigues would like to point out that he is a political prisoner,” he continues.
