“He will testify at the next hearing [la semaine prochaine] while the prosecution wants the investigator to be heard, ”explained to the court Me Fabrice Poirier, yesterday, when it was announced that his client Claude Delaney will remain detained at least until next week.

The 62-year-old man, who is believed to be suffering from mental health issues, was arrested on Monday following a series of calls to the MP for Saint-Laurent.

According to our information, Delaney wanted to talk about the young baby of the chosen one, among other things to wish him to be as successful as his mother.

Except that he was forbidden to come into contact with Ms. Rizqy, because of other accusations of harassment filed during the electoral campaign.

In addition to having tried to get closer to her and to offer her to become his volunteer driver, he would have made threats towards the liberal deputy by calling the police and the office of the deputy Enrico Ciccone in order to announce his imminent death.

On hold

He had then been released on bail and, aware of his psychiatric disorders, he would have asked to consult for therapy. However, due to the lack of personnel in the health system, he would still be on a waiting list.

Following his alleged recurrence last week, he was to meet with an expert in psychosocial emergencies, but this meeting never took place.

The bail hearing was instead set for next Wednesday, even though the law provided that this hearing was to be held last Thursday at the latest.

“He would have liked it to have been done yesterday, and even the day before yesterday,” the defense lawyer told the court.

At the next hearing, the investigator in the file should testify to the facts of the case. Delaney should also speak, said Me Poirier.
