Paris, Sep 19 (EFE), (Camera: Ana Ayesa/ Josep Puig).- French journalist Valentin Gendrot infiltrated the country’s police force during six months to write "Flic", a book in which he denounces endemic problems and violence.SOUNDBITES OF UNDERCOVER JOURNALIST VALENTIN GENDROT DURING AN INTERVIEW WITH EFE:"Racist and physical violence by police officers is a minority.""It was very hard. It is like a roller coaster. There are moments like this when I was afraid, others when I was stupefied, surprised, and there were others when I was bored when I had to keep watch at the police station entrance all morning or all afternoon without doing much, you have time and you get bored"."The policeman lives in a very virile universe, you have to pretend that everything is going well, always.""When I was infiltrated at the 19 district, a policeman who I did not know committed suicide and this makes us wonder. Why? And the truth is that there are many reasons. The working conditions are difficult, a part of the hates detests you, hierarchy does not exist. You fight with violence every day."
