Ultraright: What did the 9-May Committee, whose activists marched in Paris?

Several left-wing personalities expressed their "sham" after the neo-Nazi parade of the "Committee of 9 May" and asked Bruno Retailleau to account.

A thousand ultra-radical activists marched on Saturday in the 6th arrondissement at the call of the "C9M". A demonstration that the authorities had tried to ban in vain, and which ended on Nazi salutations.

Under the benevolent supervision of the police, a thousand neo-fascist activists, with their faces often hidden and displaying for some of the neo-Nazi signs, demonstrated on Saturday, May 10, during the traditional parade of the 9-May Committee. The neo-Nazi activist Marc de Cacqueray-Valmenier and the former treasurer of the micro-party of Marine Le Pen, Axel Loustau were present.

Approximately 1,000 participants were present during this march on Saturday, according to the police prefecture. The parade was organized by the 9-May Committee, an informal organization known for its links with the revolutionary nationalist movement.

They commemorated the accidental death of one of their members, Sébastien Deyzieu, in 1999.

The prefecture of police in the capital had initially banned this annual demonstration by arguing that there was a risk of disturbance to public order. But the administrative court in Paris suspended this measure on Friday night.
