Anti-Semitic writings: Jordan Bardella files a complaint for forgery and use of forgery

Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally, filed a complaint for forgery following a Mediapart investigation revealing alleged antisemitic writings attributed to him. He denies authorship of these messages from 2013, which surfaced just months before the presidential election. Bardella previously filed a defamation suit against Mediapart. The investigation included messages claiming Jewish control over banks and other derogatory statements. Despite Bardella's denials, Mediapart provided authentication evidence from Meta, the parent company of Facebook. Marine Le Pen, the party's presidential candidate, expressed her support for Bardella, declaring him innocent.
