The Main Department of Internal Security of France prevented a public coup attempt, LE Parisien writes. The replacement of power in France, according to investigators, was planned by the former deputy of the Democratic Movement of Remi Daie, who was in custody on suspicion of organizing attacks on vaccination centers, and his supporters.
Investigators investigated the links of Dia and came to the conclusion that they were created by the “terrorist community” having a network of branches throughout France, which was part of both the operating and retired military, police officers and gendarmerie. Correspondence of the participants in the conspiracy, carefully tested and analyzed by the investigators, helped to identify 36 of the Captains responsible for a certain region.
According to the investigation, the supporters of Dia with police shields and explosives planned to seize the Elyséi Palace, the Parliament Buildings, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of the Armed Forces, as well as any channel or radio station to broadcast from there their propaganda. The plan was called “Operation Azury”.
Calls to the uprising Diae began at the end of 2020 in Malaysia, where he was hiding from French law enforcement officers on charges of the abduction of an eight-year-old girl. In April of this year, the ex-deputy sent a message to some French parliamentarians, where it was indicated that “the republic is no longer a dominant idea,” “came the hour of payback.” The investigation began after the appeal of one of the deputies to the prosecutor’s office.
The lawyer of the ex-deputy Jean-Christoph Basson Larbie rejects any accusations in the terrorism of his client. He believes his client call “to the peaceful and popular overthrow of the existing political system as part of the exercise of his freedom of expression and conscience.”
