Trial Ordered for Three Policemen in Case of Delivery Man’s Death in Paris
Three police officers are set to face trial for involuntary manslaughter in connection with the death of Cédric Chouviat, a 42-year-old delivery man who died following a police intervention in Paris in January 2020. Chouviat had repeatedly stated ‘I can’t breathe’ during the arrest before being hospitalized and later pronounced dead. The case has drawn parallels to the death of George Floyd in the United States. The judicial ruling reflects ongoing scrutiny of police conduct during arrests.
