Key witness at trial of Nazi war criminal Maurice Papon to take part in a discussion on French state massacre, this Saturday, as part of the Bloody Sunday week end events. Historian Jean-Luc Einaudi will be a key speaker at “Losing Their Memory, State killings in Derry, Belfast and Paris”, in Seomra 2 at the Culturlann, Great James’ Street, an event, including the premiere of “Octobre a Paris”, which runs from 10 am until 2pm. Jean-Luc Einaudi is an expert on the 17 October 1961 massacre of several hundred Algerian peaceful demonstrators at the hands of French police in Paris. In 1999 Einaudi was able to prove in court that Maurice Papon, who was the Paris Prefect of Police at the time, had given direct orders to the police to carry-out the killings. In 1998 Papon had attempted to sue Einaudi for libel after he had written an article in Le Monde newspaper which said “In 1961 there was a massacre in Paris perpetrated by the Police under the orders of Maurice Papon” . Einaudi had earlier made the same claims, under privilege, against the former Police chief at the ongoing trial Papon was facing for crimes against humanity, in which he would eventually be found guilty of having ordered the deportation between 1942 and 44 of over 1,600 Jews from the Bordeaux region to the Nazi concentration camps. |
