He says himself in an “anger” that “will never cool”. After the death of a 15-year-old teenager hit by a car on New Year's Eve in Strasbourg (Bas-Rhin), his father Hicham said he was “devastated”. “We have no strength left at all. More strength. No more reason to live. Because it filled a large part of our lives. It was Rayane who fed our nest,” he testified this Friday to Ici Alsace during his son’s burial. “He’s a child, he’s a homeboy. He's a child who didn't go out. He was a child who did his work at school. »
Hicham depicts a son “appreciated by his classmates” at high school where he “prepared for a two-year CAP in catering”. “I ask that justice be done, because our lives have been taken away from us, our lives will never be the same again (…) There is Rayane’s place missing in the kitchen. They stole it from us, they stole it from us,” he told Ici Alsace.
This father believes that this “anger” will be “there forever”. “We will always be hot, we will never cool down until the end of my days. Whether it was me, his mother and his brothers and his little sister. She is 4 years old, she tells us Rayane, where is he? She sees us crying, she tells us: “Rayane, he’s going to come”? », Hicham is moved, asking us to “stop driving like that, at 80 km/h in neighborhoods where there are children”.
In this case, a 19-year-old young man was indicted for manslaughter aggravated by a hit-and-run, driving without insurance and use of forged documents for a false technical inspection. He was placed in pre-trial detention this Friday, said the Strasbourg public prosecutor's office. The accused's lawyer, Michaël Wacquez, announced to AFP that he would appeal the committal warrant. He stressed that his client was “a person who is unknown to the justice system, with a clean criminal record”.
Suspected of having driven the vehicle in the sensitive district of the Cité de l'Ill, in the north of Strasbourg, he surrendered to the authorities this Wednesday evening. Another young man, a passenger in the car, had been placed in police custody, but this was lifted without any prosecution being brought against him.
