The full story

The collective group Les Normaux scheduled a demonstration in Rouen to denounce anti-white racism and support victims of recent assaults that occurred on October 31, including FC Rouen supporters and individuals targeted after singing a Catholic chant. The prefecture of Seine-Maritime banned the march, citing a proven risk of serious public disorder and potential confrontations with another permitted rally against the high cost of living. Local elected officials, including the mayor and deputy mayor of Rouen, had urged authorities to prohibit the gathering, characterizing it as contrary to republican values. The prefecture warned that participating in the banned assembly carries penalties of up to six months in prison and a fine of 7,500 euros.
