In Berloz, in the province of Liège, a 4-year-old child was found dead in his room, his throat cut. His parents were deprived of their liberty and their versions differ. The prosecution must communicate this Monday.
A lot of information has circulated about infanticide in Berloz. What we know this Monday is that the child’s parents, a couple in their forties, have no criminal record. The police tell us about a family dispute over infidelity. Sunday afternoon, the child’s mother was arrested near Visé, 50 kilometers from the house. It was the Basse-Meuse zone which intercepted it.
She was questioned and her speech diverges from that of her companion. This Monday, the parents will be heard by the investigating judge, who has requested several investigative tasks. In particular, viewing the surveillance cameras of the neighbors’ house to check the mother’s departure time. She had left the home during the night from Saturday to Sunday.
The child’s body was recovered from the house. His autopsy will be decisive, since it will allow the time of death to be determined.
The prosecution must speak this Monday, around 5 p.m.
