France backs away from a ban on chokeholds during arrests after five days of protests by police officials
Under pressure from police, the French government backed away on Monday from a ban on chokeholds during arrests.
But French police responded with five straight days of counter protests, arguing that the ban deprived them of a key tool to subdue unruly suspects. They also bristled at being compared to police in the US, or painted as white supremacists. Activists and some lawmakers have long lobbied for French police to abandon violent techniques blamed for injury and possible death, such as chokeholds and pressing on a prone suspect's chest.
