In Bobigny, an influx of additional procedures is already registered, due to the multiplication of arrests, in particular dealers and consumers of drugs and trainers.

This is one of the major concerns of Ile -de -France courts. For them, the organization of the 2024 Olympic Games (OJ) in Paris already has concrete consequences. The multiplication of police operations in the departments concerned – notably in Seine -Saint -Denis – has a mechanical effect of increasing arrests and their judicial treatment. However, the situation in these springs is already extremely tense. And this new influx of files further increases the pressure on these courts.
Peimane Ghaleh-Marzban, first president of the Bobigny judicial court, launched the alert on this subject during his speech for the solemn return hearing on Monday, January 16: “The Olympics are now, He explained. Very clearly, we are not in a position today to deal with the possible influx of additional legal proceedings. “According to him,” the Bobigny court does not have the means of its ambitions and Singular charges that are hers in the perspective of the Olympic Games “. And to add: “I do not wish that the Bobigny judge is held responsible for the inability in which we would be dealing with new files, and this without external reinforcements, or held responsible for the degradation of the criminal response, fueling The criticisms of the ignorant on the alleged laxity of the judges. “
During his speech delivered the same day, Eric Mathais, Bobigny prosecutor, also developed the implications of the organization of the Olympic Games in a department that will host a large number of tests. He notably mentioned the “Zero Délinquency” objective “plan declined in Seine-Saint-Denis as in the other departments concerned by the Olympic Games. It is a question of targeting, among other things, the question of narcotics, rescue sale, counterfeiting or even snatched flights.
The effects of this plan have been felt since September 2022. Up to three daily operations have already taken place in this context within the department. With chain consequences: more arrests generate more police custody, which lead to more breaks, and therefore, potentially, to more prosecution. “We already feel the effects: we observe an increase of 50 % to 88 % of everyday police custody for narcotics, especially for uses, and a significant increase in arrests in terms of rescue sales or hidden work surveys . A reinforcement of the permanence of the prosecution is essential, “said Eric Mathais.
