The latter then grabbed a standard saber and struck two of his attackers in the abdomen. The first died on the spot, the second, seriously injured, managed to escape with difficulty, while the third, unharmed, escaped and called the police.
“He pretended to be jogging and suddenly took out a sword”: the violent expedition of the suspect in the attack in Paris a year before the tragedy
Indicted for aggravated violence for having participated in the nocturnal expedition against the alleged perpetrator of the saber blows, he was indicted but released under judicial supervision. When they arrived on the scene, agents from the Anti-Crime Brigade noted the death of one of the attackers.
The other seriously injured was hospitalized at Kremlin-Bicêtre (Val-de-Marne) where his vital prognosis was still in jeopardy on Sunday evening, the prosecution said. The third attacker, the one who was spared by the saber blows, and the occupant of the accommodation, were placed in police custody, as was the business manager.
The latter's custody was lifted without any charges being brought against him, the public prosecutor said. The autopsy carried out on the deceased victim revealed a deep wound caused by a weapon compatible with the saber found in the home, added the same source.
