A court in France has acquitted two police officers accused of failing to help two boys, whose deaths at a power substation led to weeks of riots.
Bouna Traore, 15, and Zyed Benna, 17, were electrocuted in the Paris suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois in October 2005.
Police had chased the boys as they made their way home from a football match.
Almost 10 years later, the court in Rennes cleared Sebastien Gaillemin and Stephanie Klein of charges of failing to assist someone in danger.
Adel Benna, Zyed's brother, said he was sickened by Monday's ruling.
"Police officers are untouchable. It's not just in this case, they are never convicted," he told reporters.
The officers had been accused of doing nothing to help, despite knowing the boys were in danger when they were seen approaching the EDF power facility. They insisted they were not to blame.
Bouna and Zyed were electrocuted while a third youth, Muhittin Altun, escaped with burns.
The deaths ignited three weeks of clashes with security forces in run-down city suburbs across France.
Vehicles and public buildings were burned and thousands of people arrested in rioting that led to the first state of emergency in the country for more than 20 years.
