France's justice minister Gerald Darmanin Monday refused to resign after outrage erupted over judicial lapses in the handling of the suspect in an 11-year-old girl's killing. Speaking with FRANCE 24's Mark Owen, Andrew Smith, Lecturer in Liberal Arts at Queen Mary's London, says that Darmanin's decision not to resign "may well be taken out of his hands at some point" adding that "there's a lot of public anger here and the justice ministry trying to say that it's the fault of magistrates is not landing, people are not buying this". #France #Lyhanna #crime 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X: https://f24.my/Xen Bluesky: https://f24.my/BSen and Threads: https://f24.my/THen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
