A sentence of 27 years of criminal imprisonment, accompanied by 18 years of security, was requested on Wednesday against the accused at the trial of the fire on rue Erlanger in Paris, which caused the death of ten people in February 2019. Advocate General Rémi Crosson du Cormier acknowledged that the judgment of the accused, who suffers from significant psychiatric disorders, was "altered" at the time of the events.

But he asked the jury not to apply the possible sentence reduction in this case, "in view of the extreme gravity of the tragedy" caused by his "voluntary, vengeful and disproportionate action".
