Far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen was stripped of her European Parliament immunity Thursday after she tweeted images of Islamic State atrocities, paving the way for her prosecution by French authorities.
Prosecutors
launched a probe in December, 2015 over the graphic pictures that the
French National Front (FN) leader posted on social media, which included
the decapitated body of US journalist James Foley.
"The
result is clear, a big majority is in favour of the lifting of
immunity," acting parliament speaker Dimitrios Papadimoulis said, after
lawmakers in Brussels voted by a show of hands.
The ruling is effective immediately for Le Pen, a National Front MEP, European Parliament officials told AFP.
