On a September evening in 2025, specialized police units conducting surveillance in sensitive areas of Nîmes detained two men in a car. Inside the vehicle, law enforcement discovered an assault rifle that was loaded. This marked the beginning of an investigation, with the two suspects being placed under formal investigation and detained in this case. More than a year later, a development occurred with the arrest of another man on October 6. This individual was placed under formal investigation yesterday and detained. The case involves the formation of a criminal association around a group that was likely planning to carry out armed actions in the popular neighborhood of Mas de Mingue on that September evening in 2025. Investigations continue.
