In the first case, M'Bala was tried for "public insult to an official," in this case Frédéric Potier, France's former interministerial delegate for the fight against racism, antisemitism and anti-LGBT hatred, in a video broadcast in September 2020.
He was implicated in another case for "public insult of an antisemitic nature" and "contestation of a crime against humanity" in two other videos dating from May 2020.
