La Jeune Garde, a dissolved organization that is still active

A criminal case of exceptional gravity

An organization originating from the so-called "antifascist" movement, dissolved in 2025 due to repeated acts of violence, is the subject of particular attention. This follows the involvement of several of its members in a criminal case of exceptional gravity. This case unfortunately led to the death of a student.

These facts, widely documented by the ongoing judicial investigation, go beyond the scope of militant violence or clashes. They call for a firm and exemplary response from the judicial authority. They justify the final confirmation of the dissolution of the organization concerned.

The murder of the student Quentin Deranque, attributed to members claiming to belong to this group, constitutes an unprecedented level of gravity and calls for exemplary criminal sanctions.

Political and institutional questions

Furthermore, the prolonged tolerance of political violence in certain higher education institutions raises questions about administrative responsibilities. This demands a rigorous examination of potential failures in security and public order. Finally, the established links between public officials and ideological activists from dissolved organizations raise a major institutional question.

The established links between La Jeune Garde and officials of La France insoumise, including the election of Raphaël Arnault as an MP in 2024, pose a major institutional question. They justify initiating appropriate procedures. In the heart of the municipal campaign, Christian Estrosi had demanded the suspension of public funding to La France insoumise, following the murder of the activist in Lyon. He had accused the movement of shady links with the ultra-left and called for the dissolution of LFI.

The imperative of the rule of law

Respect for the rule of law and Republican principles requires that all appropriate procedures be initiated, without exception or complacency. The rejection of political violence and the protection of public freedoms demand a strict and impartial application of the law.

According to a CSA poll for the JDD, Europe 1 and CNews, 81% of French people believe that the LFI MP Raphaël Arnault should leave his seat in the Assemblée nationale. Initiating prosecutions for any attempt to reform a dissolved group is also justified.
