French Police Practices Observatory: Third Report on Public Order Maintenance
Third comprehensive report from the Toulouse Observatory of Police Practices analyzing law enforcement interventions during street demonstrations from April 2021 to November 2023. This scientific and engaged study documents police operations, violent practices, and restrictions on civil liberties during public protests in France. The report examines over 220 observed demonstrations, detailing methodology, observer protocols, and incidents including targeted grenade throws, tear gas use, and physical violence against both protesters and independent observers. Based on direct field observations and conducted by researchers from CNRS, the Copernic Foundation, and the Human Rights League, this analysis provides critical examination of proportionality in riot control tactics and their compliance with international standards for independent election and protest monitoring.
