The practical effects of the state of emergency are beginning to occur.
Searches took place during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday in the Moulins district and yesterday afternoon on Assalit Street, targeting an establishment in the neighborhood.
The official outcome of these police “raids” is not known, but in the latter case, it allowed for a reckoning with the owners who have a notorious reputation.
On the Prefecture’s side, nothing is being leaked, neither regarding the results nor regarding other surveillance and intervention actions.
The situation is tense and requires utmost discretion, but there is no doubt that new operations will take place in the coming hours and days.
