The Senate will conduct additional hearings on the organization of the Champions League final enamelled on Saturday by numerous incidents at the Stade de France, announced Wednesday the president of the Culture Committee Laurent Lafon (centrist), citing in particular the prefects Lallement and Cadot.

“We are going to continue the work,” he told AFP after the hearing of Interior Ministers Gérald Darmanin and Sports Minister Amélie Oudéa-Castéra before the Culture and Laws Committees. .

“It will not be in the form of a commission of inquiry because there are already several missions which have been undertaken (…), but on the other hand there are some additional hearings to that of the two ministers which seem necessary”, he said. he continued.

Lafon quoted the prefect of police of Paris, Didier Lallement, the interministerial delegate for the Olympic Games and major events, Michel Cadot, "the consortium of the Stade de France", the RATP as well as the French Football Federation.

Go further "

“We have to go further,” also said the president of the law commission François-Noël Buffet (LR).

According to him, the government has “begun to recognize its difficulties and a share of responsibility”.

“We still have questions to ask, details to obtain (…) to really appreciate the situation”, he developed at the microphone of LCI.

“Our objective at this stage is to continue the hearings and to obtain a certain number of documents that we will request from the government (…) and we will continue to move forward, perhaps through a mission of the two commissions, Culture and Laws,” he said.

He did not formally rule out the creation of a commission of inquiry, but stressed that there were ongoing criminal complaints and that such a commission could not deal with the facts concerned by these complaints.
