It appears that the French authorities had destroyed several, but not all, weapons handed over by ETA in the framework of a police operation. Reason or excuse: A bunch of weapons was hidden to analyze whether ETA used the weapon in attacks on the Police.
However, the two police officers in charge of the operation, instead of doing so, held the weapons in a warehouse they were in charge of. The police claim to have "an innate passion for weapons" and say they had no intention of doing "any kind of gun trafficking."
French justice has brought the case to the attention of French jurisprudence. The judicial route is open.
Josu Urrutikoetxearen aurka bi auzi iragan behar dira aste huntan Pariseko auzitegi korrekzionalean. Biak ere ETA talde armatuko kide izateagatik dira, baina mementu desberdinetan.
Astelehen eta astearte honetan Parisen epaitzen ari dira David Pla eta Iratxe Sorzabal. ETAko kide eta ordezkari izatea, armak eta dokumentu faltsuak eta propaganda materiala izatea leporatzen diete.
