French authorities are probing over a hundred reports of alleged police misconduct during recent cost-of-living demonstrations, as public frustration over economic pressures continues to fuel unrest. The investigations follow widespread accusations of excessive force, including alleged beatings and unlawful detentions, raising concerns about law enforcement practices amid escalating social tensions. While details of individual cases remain under review, the scale of complaints suggests a broader pattern of alleged abuses during protests. Authorities have yet to confirm whether any disciplinary action will result from the findings.
