LThe singer Kendji Girac, injured by a gunshot on Monday, was heard on Wednesday afternoon near Bordeaux by investigators, to whom he repeated “without substantial modification” his version of an “accidental” shooting, we learned from sources close to the case. The public prosecutor of Mont-de-Marsan held a press conference this Thursday.
“The Samu was called first at 5:24 a.m.” by “a woman who has still not been identified to this day,” begins prosecutor Olivier Janson before asserting “that a form of omerta is being put in place. The gendarmes are called to leave as soon as they arrive at 6:05 a.m. When the police arrived on site, the singer was dressed only in underwear.
According to the prosecutor, all the people present on site at the time refused to give their identity.
The shot that injured Kendji Girac was fired at “a close distance, likely to correspond to a point-blank shot”, according to the forensic doctor. The bullet “did not hit any vital organ”, which was translated as “miraculous” by the prosecutor.
Concerning the weapon, “it is a quasi-automatic repeating pistol from 1911, very widespread, in a poor state of maintenance and conservation”, continues Olivier Janson, who affirms “that an accident, a untimely shooting, is deemed impossible.”
