"For the first time, one or more French investigating judges will examine the conditions of the possible criminal liability of Fabrice Leggeri in the carnage that has resulted in thousands of deaths in the Mediterranean, particularly children and women."
"The Human Rights League (LDH) filed a complaint against him in 2024, accusing him of encouraging his staff to facilitate the interception of migrant boats by the Libyan and Greek authorities."
A French judge will investigate allegations against Fabrice Leggeri, former head of Frontex, for complicity in crimes against humanity. The Human Rights League filed a complaint in 2024, accusing him of facilitating the interception of migrant boats. The Paris Court of Appeal found sufficient grounds for a judicial investigation. Since 2014, approximately 34,000 asylum seekers have died or disappeared in the Mediterranean. This investigation marks a significant step in examining Leggeri's potential criminal liability in relation to these deaths.
