Abderrazak Fetnan (Municipal Councilor of the “Changer d’Ere” group): “In the coming days, I will refer the matter to the public prosecutor by filing a complaint against persons unknown for spreading rumors aimed at inciting racial hatred.”
In the columns of Le Monde dated Tuesday, July 23, 2013, Eric Ciotti declared: “The Republic must be relentless against communitarian violence rather than hiding it.” It was this statement that made the socialist official from the Azure Coast furious, as he did not appreciate the substance of these remarks.
“This is a stance not devoid of political ulterior motives. It is urgent that the Elected Representatives of the Republic stop playing with fire. It is especially time that the Republic is equally relentless with these elected officials who, directly or indirectly, confine a segment of the population to relegated neighborhoods,” deplores the socialist official.
“It is especially time that the Republic is equally relentless with these elected officials and public or private actors who, directly or indirectly, practice employment discrimination. For example, how many agents from diverse backgrounds work at the General Council of the Alpes-Maritimes, of which Eric Ciotti is President?
Mr. Ciotti, you mentioned ‘communitarians’? The communitarians are not those who first come to mind, but rather a whole category of elected officials and other private or public actors who increasingly refuse to mix with those who are not like them.” The attacks are harsh and targeted, and probably will not go long without a response from the President of the General Council of the Alpes-Maritimes.
“It is especially time that the Republic is equally relentless with those who, through their positions or insinuations, spread hatred towards populations of different cultures or religions. It is time that the Republic is equally relentless against those who spread rumors intended to stigmatize and incite racial hatred against a population segment, as was the case during the Brรฉtigny tragedy or the events in Trappes.” Abderrazzak Fetnan denounces these amalgamations and will thus bring the matter to the competent courts in the coming days…
Justice will decide thereafter…
