France to reform security forces

The European country of France is preparing to reform the security forces. The country is at present witnessing a severe protest demanding the reformation.

French President Emanuel Macron has made a public statement in connection with the matter. He has expressed his intention to bring in the reformation.

The protest has emerged in response to a controversial law seeking to prohibit taking and sharing photos of security officials.

The protest has intensified after a video of police brutality emerged.

Many opposition leaders have expressed their support to the demand raised by the protesters. The opposition has opined that the bill would make it difficult to document police brutality.  

The police officers who were featured in the video which led to the agitation have been charged with charges of intentional violence by a person holding authority.

The French government deserves special appreciation for the way it has reacted to the issue of police brutality.

It is high time to bring in a law to reform security forces. The leaked video, which triggered the protest, proves if the law is not reformed it is easy for the police to take law in their hand.
