The Covid-19 is also disrupting justice, and in particular the trial of the November 13 attacks.

The president announced on Tuesday a new postponement of one week: another accused, Ali El Haddad Asufi, tested positive in turn.

These repeated delays worry the parties, in a trial already scheduled to last nine months and which had just entered a crucial phase: the interrogation of the accused.
