The former close collaborator of Emmanuel Macron, 30, was sentenced to three years in prison, including one year closed, on Friday. The project manager had been identified by the newspaper "Le Monde" on July 18, 2018 on a video in which he appeared, with a police helmet, brutalizing a woman and a man.

He was at the heart of a major political storm of the Macron five-year term: Alexandre Benalla, the former Elysée representative, in particular prosecuted for violence on May 1, 2018, was sentenced to three years in prison, including one closed, by the Paris court this Friday afternoon.

During the trial in September, the prosecution requested an eighteen-month suspended prison sentence against Alexandre Benalla and suspended sentences of two to twelve months against his co-convicts, the former En Marche employee!

Vincent Crase and two police officers.
