INTERVIEW
Levallois-Perret is recovering with difficulty from the conviction of the Balkany spouses for tax evasion on Friday, and the immediate imprisonment of the mayor of the city, Patrick Balkany. But while Isabelle Balkany, first deputy, plans to chair the next city council of the alto-sequan city next Monday, the historical opponent of the couple on his land, the various right Arnaud de Courson denounces on Europe 1 a situation "very complex "for Levallois-Perret.
The Balkany to the municipal? "Athletes doped at the Olympics"
Above all, the departmental councilor of the canton of Levallois-Perret in the Hauts-de-Seine is protesting against the will of Patrick Balkany to seek again the mayoralty of Le Mans in March. "We are talking about indecency", criticizes Arnaud de Courson. "How do you expect a person who is going to have 10 years of ineligibility to be a candidate in an election?" It's like sending doping athletes to the Olympics!
" Isabelle and Patrick Balkany are unable to entrust the reins to anyone other than them "Arnaud de Courson, who "of course" wants to run for municipal offices in Levallois-Perret, also regrets that the transition was not made earlier in the management of the city. "We have a rare case of a mayor in prison.The administration could have been entrusted to the second deputy, [but] Isabelle and Patrick Balkany are unable to entrust the reins to anyone other than them", criticizes the Opposition elected.
A "grotesque" situation
"The fact that they say they are able to run in an election where they can not be mayors, is grotesque and indecent," he says. On our antenna, the county councilor pronounces "for the ineligibility of corrupt elected officials" and repeats that the couple should have resigned from the office of mayor and first assistant in the spring, when he proposed them.
