According to the BFMTV broadcaster, two protesters were sentenced to imprisonment for a period of six months, and three others received suspended sentences on Wednesday.
The unrest was provoked by the incident that took place last week, when the police detained and violently beat a 22-year-old named Theo, allegedly connected to drug dealing. On Sunday, one of the police officers was charged with rape, and three of his colleagues with deliberate violence.
