Overview
- Police placed Davoux in rétention after he returned to the family apartment in violation of his contrôle judiciaire and a judge released him late Tuesday with new, stricter measures.
- The reinforced contrôle judiciaire explicitly forbids him from appearing at the domicile where his wife and children live and keeps the existing no-contact obligation in place.
- The Marseille parquet had requested revocation of his supervision, which would have led to provisional detention, but the juge des libertés et de la détention chose to tighten conditions instead.
- Davoux is due to be tried on September 9 on charges of repeated domestic violence and death threats, while a preliminary probe about his 'système Vassal' allegations and a defamation complaint remain open.
- The court’s decision aims to protect the alleged victim and maintain the integrity of the pending criminal and administrative inquiries without immediately placing Davoux in custody.
