Indic recruited by cops to monitor militant circles

Article published on https://2025indicparis.noblogs.org/2025/09/09/hello-world/ 

We have just learned about the existence of a police informant active since at least March 2022. Some comrades expressed doubts about him and chose to see him. From this interview, it was possible to consult his phone and have access to conversations with 5 cops and he quickly confessed. He calls himself ‘Momo’ and existed under different names: signal, ‘molo’, ‘zer0’, ‘Mo’, ‘Molooo’ (non-exhaustive list). He is about 1.70m tall, with curly brown hair and a beard, of average build. He is very comfortable socially, easily makes friends. He won the political trust of his comrades in an affinity setting and on the street. His extraordinary participation in many actions has allowed him to forge a credible reputation with them.

According to his statements, he would have started working with the police following an arrest. The cops allegedly showed him videos of him breaking up. They threatened to ‘take him down’ with the consequence that he would end up in prison/CRA because he didn’t have French papers. They allegedly promised him a residence permit in exchange for his information and subsequently promised him a renewal of this residence permit between 2 and 5 years. We found that the cops were paying in cash for his train tickets, rent (at least partially), school, medication, etc. In conversations, he was close with the cops (especially in 2025), testifying to a true emotional connection with them that they maintained by exploiting her isolation and situation. We know that they mainly spoke on Telegram but also on signal, WhatsApp…

We attach to this text some of the photos that testify to his activity as a police informant since March 2022. Some of the images date from March 2022, others from November and December 2023, others from July 2025, the most recent ones date from last week (September 2025).

He was able to frequent political circles before March 2022 (date on which the conversations begin (telegram). According to the information, he has participated in many political spaces since at least this date, everywhere in France and therefore has been doing intelligence for at least three years. It appears very clearly that his mission is to focus on eco-friendly wrestling fields such as Zad/local struggle/SDT/Squat/anti JO/internationalist movements/POM struggles. We had access to different types of information provided: names, phone numbers, signal nicknames, signal conversation screens, license plates, car models, photos (of people and meetings), living or collective places or organization, places of planned actions. It also balances personal information on administrative situations, nationalities, gender identities… He also proposed to certain people, groups or collectives to participate in events or actions, sometimes with the aim of ‘catching’ certain activists but also to feed the file or files.

From what we understand, he managed to integrate the meetings related to the actions but did not take any responsibilities, came irregularly in the activist frameworks and did not necessarily participate in the actions afterwards. He cooperated proactively with the cops in two ways: by zealously carrying out what the cops asked but also spontaneously by directing them on all kinds of political events (public calls found on Instagram, canteens, AGs of any struggle…). His activity in Ile-de-France is scattered over many different struggles (Palestine, AG antifa, wastelands, squats, autonomous AG, internationalist AG, ecological struggles … ). In this way, he participated in a real work of clearing up for the cops everywhere in France.

The main conversation is called “Amigo” and is composed of 5 cops and him. They were also talking individually with them in private. The majority of online requests were made through these channels. But most of the information was given during meetings in cafes and public places scattered throughout Paris or its near suburbs (especially the north-west). Appointments were sometimes very close in time: they could range from every two weeks over certain periods to every 2-4 days on average in 2025. Their meetings were also held before and after concrete actions. He would have been very active around Bure over the past 6 months. The bulk of the intelligence was surely happening during appointments and so there is a lot of information he was able to pass on that we will never know about.

The conversation has been erased over the entire period November 2022 – November 2023: it is therefore impossible to know if any information was provided on the period of the social movement against the 2023 pension reform. But he was particularly active in the Parisian bloc and would also have participated in at least these spaces: festival of peasant struggles around Bure in August 2023, Sainte-Soline weekend 2 and the week of action against Lafarge in December 2023 in Paris organized by the uprisings of the land.

The passage of indic in our struggles and spaces is common and must alarm us but not make us panic. Let’s be careful and show rigor. Let’s not participate in creating a climate of generalized paranoia on the eve of a social movement. Plenty of gestures exist to protect oneself from these things: let’s start by paying attention to what we say, to whom and where we say it, let’s clean up at home and our phones, let’s change them if we tell ourselves that it is necessary …

Hearing this news was very hard for his loved ones. Thank you for not soliciting them.

Let’s continue to organize ourselves, strength to ourselves, fire to police informants!
