Elio Darmon knows that his late testimony is intriguing. This 76-year-old man waited more than forty years to reveal what he knows about the death of former minister Robert Boulin, found partly submerged in a pond in the Rambouillet forest (Yvelines), on October 30, 1979. For him, there is no doubt that it was murder. And not a suicide, as the official thesis goes: the former minister would not have tolerated his questioning regarding the conditions of acquisition of land in Ramatuelle (Var). “If I had testified at the time, I would have been dead, says this former manager of a real estate company. If these people had been capable of killing a minister, imagine what they could have done with me. » This septuagenarian therefore preferred to keep his secret until he was sure that the main protagonists in the affair were dead. But also because his state of health is “declining. I'm at the twilight of my life”, tells us the one who now lives in Brittany and agrees, for the first time, to testify openly.
