Human rights watchdog say people angry at Macron’s pension law had right to protest peacefully

Europe’s leading human rights watchdog has accused the French police of using “excessive force” during protests against a fiercely contested pension law.

“While a state may be authorised to use force in order, inter alia, to restore order, such use should be a last resort and in strict compliance with the conditions of necessity and proportionality. The primary obligation of every Council of Europe member state is to protect the people under its jurisdiction and their human rights.”

Hundreds of people have been arrested and detained. The majority have been subsequently released without charges.
