PARIS, Jan 23 — A French policeman dealt a man with a camera such a strong truncheon blow during pension reform protests this week that he had to have a testicle amputated, the man’s lawyer said Sunday.
Lawyer Lucie Simon said she was filing a complaint on behalf of her client, a 26-year-old Franco-Spanish engineer who was taking pictures of the gathering, for “voluntary violence that led to mutilation by a person vested with public authority”. “This is not a case of self-defence or necessity. The proof is in the images we have and the fact that he was then not arrested.”
