Earlier in the day, the public prosecutor of Nanterre had announced the opening of a judicial investigation against this 38-year-old motorcyclist.
“In the state of the investigations, the prosecution considers that the legal conditions for the use of the weapon are not met,” he said at a press conference.
For his part, the Minister of the Interior had indicated that the policeman was going to be suspended.
A video sequence showing a policeman shooting at point-blank range against the young Nael on Tuesday morning during a roadside check shocked the country and sparked a wave of indignation and reactions that flared up everywhere.
Violence broke out on the evening of the tragedy in Nanterre and in several municipalities in the Ile de France region, before spreading the following night to other cities in France.
This Thursday, clashes between young people and the police occurred at the end of the white march organized in Nanterre to pay tribute to the victim.
According to the media, the clashes began at the end of this march which brought together more than 6,000 people who came out to denounce the death of this young man and the police violence.
Fearing a conflagration of the situation, like the riots in the suburbs of 2005, the Ministry of the Interior announced the mobilization of 40,000 police and gendarmes throughout France.
