This is truly unbelievable. A citizen has the absolute right to freely enter and leave their country, at least my passports that I hold entitle me to do so, with the 2 countries I hold passports of.

These tyrants in uniform have to be called out and examples made of them. Why not complain to the French Immigration department (or equivalent) with the time, location and name of the officer involved? Even if you don't remember the name, they have CCTV footage.
