Anti-terrorism measures targeting demonstrators before October 31
On the eve of the October 31 mobilization, activists were subjected to individual administrative control and surveillance measures (Micas), inherited from the state of emergency, requiring them in particular to report to the police station; in Marseille, a thirty-something with a clean record received such a measure on October 30. On November 4, unions and civil liberties defenders denounced these bans and measures in Paris, while the CGT, Unef and the Human Rights League filed an appeal against infringements on the right to demonstrate. Magistrates, lawyers and NGOs also criticized "authoritarian" measures, and the Interior Ministry was described as mobilizing the anti-terrorism arsenal against the ultra-left. On November 10, the Paris Administrative Court examined an appeal for annulment of measures targeting left-wing activists, without the Interior Ministry appearing. On November 11, the administrative judiciary disavowed these anti-terrorism measures, a decision criticizing their use by the executive.
