Five activists of the ecological movement Extinction Rebellion placed in police custody Monday in Marseille after a demonstration against a return to "excessive consumption" after the deconfinement were released. "They were reminded of the law for unarmed assembly with refusal to disperse after three summons," said Marseille prosecutor Dominique Laurens, adding that the environmental activists were released from police custody on Monday.
On the first day of the deconfinement Monday, about fifty people had walked along the Canebière, brandishing slogans like "Tell the Truth" "More money for hospitals, not for Bernard Arnault! (CEO of luxury group LVMH), Extinction Rebellion (XR) reported on Twitter.
A decision denounced by Mélenchon
“Deconfinite action in progress: the caterpillar restarts !! Happy to find our former life: excessive advertising, excessive consumption fueled by the depletion of natural resources and the widening of social inequalities! "Tweeted XR Marseille again.
The militants were escorted from the start by the police, were ordered to disperse, and five of them who refused were subsequently arrested. Jean-Luc Mélenchon denounced this inquiry on Twitter Monday evening: “People have the right to stack up on Valérie Pécresse's RER trains but not to demonstrate while respecting physical distances. Free the militants in Marseilles and elsewhere. Democracy must be deconfigured! "
