A French police officer accused of killing a teenager, against whom he shot in 2023, in an incident that caused violent demonstrations across the country, will be tried next year, it was announced today by the Nanker prosecutor’s office.

In March, prosecutors requested one of the two police officers targeted by investigations by a police fire of 17 -year -old Nahael M. on June 27, in Nader, a suburb of Paris, to sit on the dock of the defendant. The category of synergy in homicide against the other police officer withdrew.

The prosecutors who undertook the investigation today decided today by the Police Officer Florian M. to hold a court in Ot de Sen.

If appeals are not brought, the trial could begin the second or third quarter of 2026, it is stated in the statement by the Nader Public Prosecutor’s Office.

The police officer shot against Nahel, after he did not comply with the police to stop his car. The boy, originally from North Africa, later succumbed to his wounds.

In a video released on social media and whose authenticity has identified Reuters, two police officers next to the vehicle, a Mercedes-AMG, and one of them open fire as the driver leaves.

The news of Nahael’s death and the video were widely released on social media, causing anger and riots in Nader and other cities across France.
