According to Le Monde, "the prosecutor of the Republic of Basse-Terre communicated from July 7 to his hierarchical superior, the attorney general of the Republic of Basse-Terre, of his wish to be relieved of his duties".
Jean-Luc Lennon indicated that his request for discharge from office “[was] directly linked to the appointment of Mr. Dupond-Moretti to the post of Keeper of the Seals and the concern [he feels] over the independence of the parquet [he sees] moving away. "
This is a "completely personal" approach, which "[can] be similar to the conscience clause from which journalists can benefit". "I do not wish to work under the authority of Mr. Dupond-Moretti," he told Le Monde.
Jean-Luc Lennon is also in charge of affairs in Saint-Martin; the two vice-prosecutors exercise locally under his authority. (soualigapost.com)
