Paris. Des enquêteurs empêchés d'entrer à l'Élysée pour effectuer ...
Des enquêteurs s'intéressent à l'attribution d'un marché à une société d'événementiel qui a organisé toutes les cérémonies d'entrées au Panthéon de 2002 à 2024.
www.leprogres.frHere’s what’s currently reported about the Élysée perquisition:
- French investigators conducted/searches related to the Pantheon ceremony contracts, with the Élysée reportedly not allowing access at first due to constitutional inviolability, while some documents may be requested or transmitted under certain conditions. The probes focus on how certain public contracts for Pantheon ceremonies were awarded over the years.[3][4][9]
- Reports indicate the investigation opened in late 2025 is examining issues of favoritism, possible conflicts of interest, corruption, and influence peddling in relation to a single event-management company that organized Pantheon entries. The breadth of the probe has led to multiple locations being searched, including residences, and discussions about the limits of presidential inviolability in ongoing investigations.[2][8][3]
- Coverage from multiple outlets notes that the Pantheon contracts with Shortcut Events have been a focal point, with questions about why that company repeatedly received the contracts for many Pantheon ceremonies between 2002 and 2024. Some reports mention a typical contract value around several million euros per ceremony.[4][7][3]

- A key element of the story is the tension between investigators and the presidency over access to presidential premises, highlighted by statements from the financial public prosecutor and the Élysée confirming that certain documents can be shared on request but access to premises was restricted.[8][3]
