These burglaries and attempts took place on a single evening in a residential area of Bellegarde near Nîmes. Just a few days before Christmas, December 21, 2019.
At the bar of the Nîmes criminal court this Tuesday, November 12, Khaled makes amends. Hooded jacket, diamond in his ear, the thirty-year-old apologizes to the victims and – above all – he recognizes all the facts with which he is accused. A great first.
Because since this series of burglaries that occurred in Bellegarde almost 5 years ago, in December 2019, Khaled (already sentenced to 4 years in prison for acts of the same nature) has long denied being the author of this new series of thefts by cunning.
Before first recognizing just one, confused by its DNA which will be found on a fence pillar at the home of one of the individuals visited. “Someone who borrowed my pair of gloves probably committed the other burglaries “, he had long assured investigators in this case.
“One was coming back, the other was keeping watch!”
On December 21, 2019, in the early evening, a woman had jewelry and multimedia equipment stolen from her home in a residential area of the town of Bellegarde. At the same time, two other houses were visited before a new intrusion attempt via a French window which will never open regardless of the will of the two burglars.
“I was acting with a colleague. One was coming home, while the other was keeping watch”finally assures the accused this Tuesday, November 12. Having become a deliveryman, Khaled now claims to have changed his life and his relationships. Twelve months of adjustable imprisonment were requested against him by the prosecutor, Frédéric Kocher.
At the end of the afternoon, the person concerned for his exemplary behavior during the hearing received a sentence of 200 day fines of 6 euros. To the satisfaction of his lawyer who requested a confusion of sentences for Khaled recently sentenced to 4 years in prison for 6 burglaries.
At the conclusion of the deliberations, the convicted person therefore left the court free. In the presence of his partner, smile from ear to ear and look almost surprised!
