French authorities have detained nine individuals in connection with the death of a far-right activist, Quentin Deranque, in Lyon. Among those arrested is an aide to a lawmaker from the far-left France Unbowed (LFI) party. The incident has intensified political tensions ahead of upcoming municipal and presidential elections.

Deranque, aged 23, was reportedly beaten outside a venue in Lyon where Member of the European Parliament Rima Hassan was speaking. The Lyon prosecutor, Thierry Dran, confirmed the arrests, stating that six suspects are believed to have participated in the assault, while three others are accused of aiding them. The group includes seven men and two women.

Raphael Arnault, a lawmaker from the LFI party, confirmed that his aide was among the first four detained and has since ceased all parliamentary work. The head of LFI, Jean-Luc Melenchon, condemned the attack, emphasizing the dishonor in resorting to violence.

The anti-immigration group Nemesis, with which Deranque was affiliated, blamed the incident on La Jeune Garde, an anti-fascist youth group previously co-founded by Arnault. La Jeune Garde, dissolved in June, denied any involvement in the event.

The Lyon prosecutor's office is pursuing the case as a voluntary homicide and aggravated assault. A video of the incident reportedly shows multiple individuals attacking others with iron bars, and lawmakers observed a minute of silence in Deranque's memory.

Marine Le Pen, a presidential candidate from the National Rally, condemned the attack, while her party's leader, Jordan Bardella, accused Melenchon of bearing moral and political responsibility. The investigation continues as political leaders respond to the incident’s ramifications.
