French Interior Ministry Files Complaint Over 'Fachorama' Card Game Depicting 'Racist Cop'

The case centers on a card labeled “racist BAC cop,” a depiction police unions call defamatory.

Overview

  • Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez has lodged a legal complaint targeting the game produced by La Horde and published by Libertalia.
  • Alliance Police Nationale condemned the portrayal and urged retailers to pull the product from stores and online listings.
  • Libertalia said it has not received official notification of the complaint and reported the game is sold out with reprints planned for January.
  • Released in early November, the seven-family game features far-right figures and is available in some hypermarkets and on a major French online platform.
  • The dispute recalls a 2022 episode when Libertalia’s Antifa game was briefly removed from Fnac before being restored to sale.
