Since Monday, the City of Agde has become a civil party in the Ettore affair. Sébastien Frey also, with the agreement of the majority, asked the mayor to take his responsibilities to clarify the situation facing the Agathois.

Sébastien Frey is serious, embarrassed to talk about this situation. He made a resolution that he would never have imagined taking, in 23 years of collaboration with Gilles D'Ettore. But the delicate situation experienced by elected officials in Agath requires clarity, since the mayor of Agde was placed in pre-trial detention, as well as the clairvoyant, whom he had been seeing for four years .

A private letter that will never be made public

"I took the initiative, with the agreement of the majority, to write to the mayor to ask him to let us know his intentions regarding the executive functions that he is prevented from exercising."In other words, the first deputy asked, this Thursday morning, April 18, by letter, to Gilles D'Ettore, to resign from his functions so that the exercise of the duties elected officials be simplified.

"I never imagined finding myself in such a situation. Never! I never thought I would write such a letter. This is a private letter. Between him and me. I would never make it public. He must clarify the situation. He must do it and through his care, it will be more dignified and clearer."

"Revoke it: never ! "

For several days now, rumors have been circulating that elected officials were going to request the dismissal of the chief magistrate of the city of Agde. At the Agglo Hérault Méditerranée and in the City, some assured, still masked, that an approach to dismiss the mayor was going to be presented in Paris, so that Gilles D'Ettore be removed from office, via the council of ministers. "I have never heard of such a rumor. At least within the majority. But we never considered such an outcome. Have it revoked, never! ", firmly assured Sébastien Frey.

We don't just manage day-to-day affairs

If, for thirty days, elected officials and town hall staff have not heard from their mayor, the town hall is moving forward. The files too. An "audit" The financial institution was commissioned to ensure the sincerity of the town hall's finances. "We are reassured. As we imagined, there is nothing,we explain again. And Sébastien Frey added: "This is an unprecedented situation. Difficult. There is a mixture of anger and disappointment, but we must cope. We owe it to the Agathois. They elected our team on a project and we are going to carry it out. Nothing will be stopped. Right now it’s my responsibility. So we all move forward. The majority are united and hard at work."

The city became a civil party on Monday

No one intends to respond to rumors. "We have strengthened all security procedures to ensure the greatest transparency. We will respond to all requests for the purposes of justice, but do not count on us to discuss the investigation. We don't know anything about the case." It is also in this sense that, since Monday, the City has become a civil party in this matter. "We won't be the judges of Gilles D'Ettore, but we need to know. We asked our lawyer to form the City as a civil party. We will thus know the elements of the file because we do not know, with precision, what the mayor is accused of." At first the city just wanted to defend its interests by appointing a lawyer. In the corridors of the town hall we do not expect to see Gilles Ettore for several weeks. "No one even imagines that he will return to his duties. Not with all that", we explain in front of the town hall. "Our city is being scrutinized from all over France and Not a week goes by without a revelation. For us, he cannot come back, even if he could have imagined it."
