Nahima, who has been in pre-trial detention in the women’s section of Seysses prison since Wednesday evening, appeared before the court yesterday afternoon, accompanied by prison officers, to have her sentence handed down in immediate appearance. The Montpellier native, who had just come of age, was accused of making “death threats against a person in public service” in Carcassonne on April 3. But also “insulting a person holding public authority” and “rebellion”, dated March 9 in Lavaur (Tarn).
(…) On March 9, Nahima, who had just reached the age of majority, insulted two prison officers as she smashed up her cell: “To the Quran, I’m going to fuck you, you sons of bitches…”. On the way to the disciplinary area, Nahima continued the insults by rebelling.
On March 16, the young woman is sentenced to three months in prison, suspended for two years, with a commitment to therapy and an obligation to do 70 hours of community service, after threats against staff at the Perpignan hostel earlier this year. No jail time, but a mandatory stay in a psychiatric ward before she takes the train from Lavaur to Carcassonne on March 23. A week later, Nahima went to the Maison Départementale des Solidarités (MDS) in the Rue du Palais in Carcassonne to collect her identity papers. In vain, because she encounters a security guard who does not let her in. To the officers present on April 3, she said: “I will come back to blow up everything with Kalashnikovs, and this time it won’t be dummy guns! I swear by the Quran and by the baby I lost because of you!”
In court, Nahima admitted all the charges, stating that her words had transcended her thoughts and that she was “not radicalised, not at all!” (…). La Dépêche
