It all started with a spinning of a 17-year-old young man with bin police (anti-crime brigade) who manage to follow him even in the interior courtyard of a building, a police source reported. When it comes out, they challenge it and discover that it has a sum of 600 euros. The young man tells them to see a friend.
The police then contact “the friend”, who is in fact the president of INA. The latter acknowledges having bought the young man of cocaine for an amount of 600 euros and gives the drug to the police. Cocaine is generally sold around 60 euros per gram, at detail, in France.

Aged 55, Laurent Vallet was renewed in May for a third term of five years at the head of the INA, on the proposal of the Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati.
He has occupied the presidency of this public structure since May 2015. He then succeeded Agnès Saal, which remained less than a year in office. She had to resign at the request of the Minister of Culture at the time, Fleur Pellerin, after the revelation of taxi costs exceeding 40,000 euros in ten months.
Before directing the INA, he was since 2002 Managing Director of the Institute for the financing of cinema and cultural industries (IFCIC), a credit institution which aims to facilitate access to credit for cultural businesses. He graduated from Sciences Po, HEC and ENA.
