They planned murders of migrants and attacks on mosques, their trial postponed until January

The appeal trial of the eleven far-right activists, due to take place last week, will now be held in January. A request for postponement was lodged by the lawyer of one of the defendants: the trial date fell at the same time as her delivery.

In January 2023, thirteen defendants were brought to trial: three were convicted of “association de malfaiteurs terroristes” (terrorist criminal association), and another of “illegal possession and sale of weapons”. Nine were acquitted.

This appeal trial concerns three convicts who appealed against the lower court’s decision, and eight defendants who were acquitted following an appeal by the national anti-terrorist prosecutor’s office.

In 2018, one of the group’s members, Jean-Pierre Bouyer, planned to kill President Emmanuel Macron during the commemorations of the centenary of the November 11 Armistice in eastern France.

In the same year, members of the group planned a putsch, assassinations of migrants and attacks on mosques.

None of these projects has been implemented.
