Le nouveau ministre de la justice, nommé lundi, était l’invité du journal télévisé de 20 heures de TF1, jeudi 26 décembre.
Gérald Darmanin, the newly appointed French Minister of Justice, announced his intention to extend the duration of police custody for suspects in cases of aggravated sexual violence and femicides. Currently at 48 hours, Darmanin wants to increase this to 72 hours, arguing it will allow for better protection of victims, more thorough police investigations, and more in-depth questioning of suspects.
This announcement comes in response to recent high-profile cases highlighting flaws in the existing legal framework.
