Paris, 11 July 2022 Following their joint complaint filed in April 2022, the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), the French Ligue des droits de lHomme (LDH), and French-Palestinian human rights defender and lawyer Salah Hammouri received confirmation last week that the Paris Prosecutor has opened a judicial investigation into Israeli cyber intelligence company NSO Groups illegal infiltration of MrHammouris phone. We commend this prompt reaction from the Paris Prosecutor and hope that this judicial investigation, led by an independent investigative judge, will shed light on the NSO Groups illegitimate use of technologies in violation of human rights laws and French criminal law, said Emmanuel Daoud, Clmence Bectarte, and Patrick Baudouin, who filed the complaint in April 2022 on behalf of FIDH, LDH, and Salah Hammouri
