French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday urged calm and restraint after the fatal beating of a 23-year-old French youth aligned with the far-right on the sidelines of a conference by a hard-left lawmaker in the southeastern city of Lyon.<\/p>\n
The death of the young man \u2014 identified only as Quentin \u2014 has intensified tensions between France\u2019s far-right and hard-left who are both eyeing 2027 presidential elections.<\/p>\n
He had been in hospitalised in Lyon on Thursday after being attacked while providing what his supporters said was security for a protest against an appearance by hard-left MEP Rima Hassan at the Lyon branch of the Sciences Po university.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The office of the Lyon prosecutor on Saturday told AFP he had died of his wounds. An investigation has been opened into suspected aggravated manslaughter, it added.<\/p>\n
Macron said on X that Quentin had been the victim of \u201can unprecedented outburst of violence.<\/p>\n
\u201cHatred that kills has no place in our country. I call for calm, restraint and respect,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
According to the Nemesis collective, which is close to the far-right, Quentin was part of the security team responsible for ensuring the safety of its activists.<\/p>\n
They were demonstrating against the conference by Hassan, who is known for her outspoken criticism of Israel.<\/p>\n
The family\u2019s lawyer said in a statement that Quentin appeared to have been ambushed by \u201corganised and trained individuals, vastly superior in number and armed, some with their faces masked\u201d.<\/p>\n
Prosecutors have yet to give details on the circumstances of his death.<\/p>\n
Nemesis accused members of a local anti-fascist association that was banned by the government in June of being behind the killing.<\/p>\n
Three-time presidential candidate Marine Le Pen, who is still hoping to stand in 2027 despite a graft conviction, said on X that the \u201cbarbarians responsible for this lynching\u201d should be brought to justice.<\/p>\n
With Quentin\u2019s death sparking a wave of alarm across the political spectrum, concern also spread to the hard-left party of Hassan, France Unbowed (LFI).<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat I have feared for years in Lyon is continuing,\u201d said LFI French parliament MP Raphael Arnault.<\/p>\n
\u201cI offer my condolences to the family of this young man and I hope that the truth will be uncovered about this tragedy,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Le Pen\u2019s far-right National Rally (RN) is the biggest single party by seats in the French lower house while the LFI is the biggest left-wing faction.<\/p>\n
In the wake of the incident, Interior Minister Laurent Nunez urged authorities to \u201cincrease vigilance around political gatherings, as well as around campaign offices\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
