If it emerges from the initial elements of the investigation or from police custody itself that there is a serious risk of imminent terrorist action in France or abroad, or that the requirements of international cooperation make this imperative, the juge des libertés may, exceptionally and in accordance with the procedures set out in the second paragraph of Article 706-88, decide that the current police custody of a person, based on one of the offences referred to in 11° of Article 706-73, will be subject to an additional extension of twenty-four hours, renewable once.
At the end of the ninety-sixth hour and the one hundred and twentieth hour, the person whose police custody has been extended in this way may ask to speak to a lawyer, in accordance with the procedures laid down by l’article 63-4. The person in custody shall be notified of this right as soon as the extension provided for in this article is notified.
In addition to the possibility of a medical examination carried out at the initiative of the detainee, from the start of each of the two additional extensions, the detainee must be examined by a doctor appointed by the public prosecutor, investigating judge or judicial police officer. The doctor requested must give an opinion on whether the extension of the measure is compatible with the person’s state of health.
If the request of the person in police custody to notify, by telephone, a person with whom he usually lives or one of his direct relatives, one of his brothers and sisters or his employer, of the measure to which he is subject has not been granted, under the conditions provided for in the articles 63-1 and 63-2, she may repeat this request from the ninety-sixth hour.
