Sounds as though this could be classified as a”head-turner”. The person who could do something will just look the other way. How sad!

Since the UMP is the party of the current French President, I am afraid very little prosecution is going to happen. Unless our President decides to take a principled stand… not.

Mr Mourad Kahoul was also instrumental in kicking Greenpeace ship out of Marseille (for exactly the same reason).
