Malik Oussekine and Abdel Benyahia, two cases of police blunders in “Our brothers”

Malik Oussekine and Abdel Benyahia two cases of police blunders

We remember Malik Oussekine, a brilliant student and music lover, who died in 1986, under the blows of police on motorcycles. But who remembers Abdel Benyahia, also killed on the night of December 5 to 6, 2022 of the same year? A movie, “Our brothers“returns to these two cases. Two cases so sadly similar, and so different, one having eclipsed the other. Two stories that tell the France of then, but also that of today: what is it to be French? Are some more equal than others, to paraphrase George Orwell’s Animal Farm?
