SAINTE SOLINE. Serge D.-G. and Mickaël B. seriously injured during the Sainte-Soline demonstration are still in a coma on March 29. Both are known to the intelligence services for previous virulent mobilizations. What we know.
The Sainte-Soline demonstration brought together peace activists and more vocal ultra-left members on Saturday, March 25. It would be to this second category of demonstrators that the two men, seriously injured during clashes with the police and currently in a coma, belong. Named Serge D.-G. and Mickaël B. according to information from Le Parisien, the two men are known to the intelligence services and the first is also on file S for his links with movements of the radical left and anarchist.
If it was during the Sainte-Soline demonstration that the two activists were injured respectively in the skull and throat, the circumstances and the perpetrators of their injuries are not yet known. If they may have been caused by police interventions, a bad blow in the ranks of the radical demonstrators could also be the cause. The Rennes prosecutor’s office, which specializes in military affairs, must shed light on this point. “The investigations were entrusted to the General Inspectorate of the National Gendarmerie (IGGN) under the qualifications of violence (with total incapacity for work greater than eight days) by a person holding public authority and non-assistance to anyone in danger (for one of them)”, specified the prosecutor to the World.
Aged 32, the man from Toulouse is not at his first manifestation. He has several militant actions to his credit, some of them virulent. One of them – the ransacking of the premises of the Judicial Protection of Youth in Labège, a town bordering Toulouse – even sent him to pre-trial detention for two months in 2011. At the time, Serge D.- G. and a dozen other demonstrators had targeted the premises with tear gas before entering them to degrade them according to the memories of La Dépêche du Midi. Less than a year before this mobilization, the young man had been registered in the S files of the intelligence services.
In addition to showing a certain closeness to movements of the radical left, the man evolved in a family environment also close to the extreme left. Le Parisien adds that the father of Serge D.-G. claims to be an anarchist.
The mobilization in Sainte-Soline was not the first demonstration in which this thirty-year-old participated. Also known to the intelligence services, Mickaël had been noticed during the demonstrations of the Yellow Vests writes the Ile-de-France newspaper. But the profile of a radical militant drawn up to describe the young man does not correspond to reality according to the mother of the injured. “What he likes is to sing with others, to support. He is a pacifist, he is not a black bloc”, she assured the microphone of BFMTV.
If reassuring news has been reported concerning the condition of Mickaël B., the second protester still seems to be in critical condition. After presenting himself but under X at the University Hospital of Poitiers, Mickaël B. underwent a “brain operation” according to his mother and was placed in an artificial coma. His state of health would have improved, the vital prognosis would no longer be engaged since Tuesday, March 28 and the man could wake up in the coming days according to information from the Earth Uprisings movement.
Serge B. is still placed in a coma between life and death. Found inert near the clashes in Sainte-Soline, Saturday afternoon, the 32-year-old man was taken care of by a doctor from the gendarmerie before being transferred to the Poitiers hospital center in serious condition. . The state of the 30-year-old stabilized on March 28, according to activists from the Earth Uprisings movement, but the vital prognosis is still engaged.
