Le Figaro daily and the Franceinfo media chain disclosed the decision, which argues that the autopsy and experts’ examinations did not find any signs of violence causing the 24-year-old Frenchman’s death, who was detained in Val-d’Oise Department, in Paris.
The announcement of Traoré’s demise then sparked protests against police violence, which were resumed in 2020 due to the murder in the United States of the African-American George Floyd.
The attorneys representing the three police officers welcomed the court ruling, whilst Traoré’s family assured they would file an appeal.
