Claiming to be a victim of domestic violence, she would have reported it to the Niort national police, which did not prevent her from being killed and then dismembered: our colleagues from Western Mail obtained the minutes of a complaint filed by Nneoma, who called herself Jennifer, against her companion. The first in a series of three, according to the regional daily.
The body of this young mother of three children was discovered, incomplete, on Saturday July 6, 2024 in an abandoned shopping bag at the foot of the building in which she lived, tower no. 12 in the Pontreau district in Niort. Her 32-year-old partner was then indicted for, in particular, murder and placed in pre-trial detention. The remains of the victim's remains were finally found in the cellar of the building.
After he learned that I was pregnant, his violence against me was repeated for no particular reason
Jennifer, in her first complaint against her companion in 2017, Niort
In her initial complaint dating back to 2017, Jennifer, then 18, stated this: “He started hitting me in 2016 when he was more or less drunk. After he learned that I was pregnant, his violence against me was repeated for no particular reason, accompanied by insults. » She had provided the police with a medical certificate obtained from the hospital center of the town-prefecture of Deux-Sèvres: a total incapacity for work lasting five days had been attributed to her.
Like the Western Mail, The New Central-West Republic had contacted, on four occasions in our case, the public prosecutor of Niort regarding possible complaints filed by the complainant before her violent death. Because what was still only a rumor had been heard on the sidelines of two demonstrations, the first in tribute to the victim, the second to denounce femicide more widely. Julien Wattebled never followed up. We relaunched it this Friday, December 6, 2024.
