The police force suspects these officials of violence by person holding public authority and forgery in public writing.

In total, some fifteen investigations have been targeting since the beginning of the summer some of the 148 officials assigned to the former CSI of Seine-Saint-Denis, created in 2008 to carry out missions to secure neighborhoods or preserve the order.

For a long time in the crosshairs of the IGPN, certain agents are in particular suspected of racketeering with drug traffickers, as France Inter revealed a few months ago.

At the end of their custody in July, four police officers had already been indicted for "forgery and use of forgery in public writing", "arbitrary attack on individual freedom".

Three of the agents had also been charged with an indictment for "voluntary violence in assembly".

The revelation of suspicion of violence and falsification of reports had led the police chief, Didier Lallement, to dissolve the unit in July.
