About this event

The trial of the former head of the Gestapo in Lyon did not take place until decades after the crimes he had committed, and only following protracted international intervention. His defence lawyer, Jacques Vergès, consistently questioned the legitimacy of the court by referring to France’s history of colonial violence.
