But fearful of reigniting recent unrest sparked by the police killing of 17-year-old Nahel Merzouk at a traffic stop near Paris, a court ruled the chance of public disturbance was too high to allow the march to proceed. "We are marching for the youth to denounce police violence. They want to hide our deaths," she said at the rally, also attended by several lawmakers.
Youssouf Traore, another of Assa Tarore's brothers, was arrested on the fringes of the rally and then"transferred to hospital," march organisers said.
