- The trial of Kevin Vacher, activist of the collective of November 5, has been postponed until July 21 for further information.
- He is prosecuted by an employee of Marseille habitat, for willful violence after the occupation of a local of the social landlord following the eviction of several families from a dilapidated building.
- Kevin Vacher denies being the cause of the employee's injury, which resulted in an ITT of less than eight days.
New twist in the Kevin Vacher case. While he was to be tried this Thursday by the Marseille Criminal Court for aggravated violence, Kevin Vacher will still have to wait to know the outcome of his fate. The president of the court Laure Delsupexhe followed the request of the public prosecutor by requesting additional information. She would like the manager of the Marseille Habitat branch, who was called as a witness by Kevin Vacher, but also by the complainant, to be heard.
However, this official was never interviewed during the investigation, despite the 30 hours of police custody of Kevin Vacher, and a first referral requested by the defense due to the lawyers' strike. “In the absence of this hearing, it poses a real difficulty for me to decide. Your version is different from the complainant, so I ask for more information, ”said Laure Delsupexhe.
"The file is empty"
“I am surprised by the form, not to have been informed by the public prosecutor of this request for additional information. On the merits, this file has nothing to do before a criminal court, we are on a form of relentlessness of the prosecution, "said counsel for Kevin Vacher, Laurent Laurent Bartolomei.
“The prosecution understands that the file is empty. After 30 hours in police custody and 10 months after the events, although the complainant did not come to either of the two hearings, the prosecution still adds a layer, "commented Kevin Vacher.
The complainant, who withdrew from the civil action while maintaining her complaint, did not appear at either of the two hearings. She had filed a complaint for having been trampled on during an occupation of the premises of Marseille habitat by members of the collective of November 5 after the dislocation of several families from a dilapidated building. Kevin Vacher has always disputed being the cause of this injury which had resulted in less than eight days of ITT. The trial was postponed to July 21.
