Damien Terrell, a young man who slapped French President Emmanuel Macron, has been sentenced by a local court to four months in prison. On Thursday, the accused was initially sentenced to 18 months in prison, but his sentence was later suspended. As a result, he will have to spend four months in jail as a punishment for slapping the president.
An Al Jazeera report said a prosecutor described Tarel's actions as "absolutely unacceptable" and "voluntary violence" since the incident.
Macron visited the Drom area in southern France last Tuesday. At this time he went near the barricade to 'shake hands' with the locals. Terrell slapped him hard on the cheek. Macron was immediately removed and the young man was detained.
Terrell told the court that Macron had planned to throw eggs or cream at him a few days before he visited the area. However, slapping was not in his plan. According to BFM TV, Terrell told the court, "I think Macron is very clearly leading our country to collapse.
If I had challenged Macron to wrestle in broad daylight, I don't think he would have agreed. "
