French interior minister promises crackdown on illegal rave parties

INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez vowed on Sunday to crack down on illegal raves as he visited the area in central France where a massive free party was held on a military base despite authorities' warnings about the risk of unexploded mortars. Organisers said they chose Nunez's hometown of Bourges to protest against a proposed bill increasing penalties for unregistered raves.
