A week after that involving a 16-year-old teenager kidnapped and humiliated in Ville-du-Bois, a new case of violent kidnapping shakes Essonne. This time, the victim would have spent several days in the hands of his jailers, without knowing precisely how many. An investigation is underway.
The events took place in Brunoy, in the Hautes-Mardelles district. This Wednesday December, police officers from Val d'Yerres – Val de Seine inspect the common areas of a residence. A family has just raised the alarm: a young man from the neighborhood, aged 20, is being held by several people who are demanding a large sum of money from him.
The police raided the designated locations and ended up finding the victim and three suspects in a home. Even though he appears to be in good health, the young man is hospitalized for examinations. According to his initial statements, he spent “several days” in the hands of his captors.
The reason? An obscure story of money debt. The perpetrators, in particular the “leader” of this operation, would ask him for nearly 20,000 euros for a “service” rendered… “The victim was taken to a cellar, then various apartments in the city, while being assaulted” fact know a police source. A nightmare that ends with the intervention of the police. The agents also discovered traces of blood, perhaps those of the victim, in the cellar which would have served as a place of detention.
Placed in police custody, the three suspects deny it outright. This Thursday, the police arrested a fourth suspect who was near an apartment where the victim had been taken. He also rejects all responsibility. This Friday, two men aged 21 and 43, including the alleged instigator of the facts, were referred to the Évry-Courcouronnes judicial court, awaiting a criminal response. The two other suspects were released without prosecution and the victim was not very cooperative.
At the same time, the investigation is still open to find the perpetrators of the violence against this 16-year-old from Saint-Germain-lès-Arpajon. The teenager was kidnapped on the way to high school on November 28, then taken to a cellar and subjected to acts of torture and barbarity.
