For MP Sophia Chikirou, the judicial calendar impacts the political calendar. The candidate of La France insoumise (LFI) for Paris city corridor can be tried in May for fraud in July 2018 to the detriment of the information website The MediaAgence France-Presse (AFP) realized on Sunday January 4 from a judicial supply.
After a preliminary investigation, the prosecution referred the deputy to the felony courtroom to be judged on May 12, two months after the municipal elections scheduled for March. “This is a case that has dragged on for almost ten years. Releasing it now is a purely political decision on the part of the prosecution”denounced his lawyer Dominique Tricaud, contacted by AFP.
The choice of the general public prosecutor “is eminently political and only aims to sully and hinder my campaign”castigated the MP to the AFP, believing that the file was a easy “commercial dispute” in 2018, which has since been resolved.
