A wake will take place on Friday, November 15 from 8 p.m. at the Gibjoncs everyone’s room, rue Alexandre-David-Neel. On Saturday, November 16, a religious ceremony will be organized in the evangelical church rue Barbès in Bourges. The burial will take place at 11:30 a.m. at the Pignoux cemetery.
As a reminder, on October 22, 2024, the teenager suffered a heavy fall during a football camp. When he returned home, he did nothing but sleep for two days.
On October 24, the young boy’s sister called his father to tell him thatshe thought he had broken his shoulder. Israel’s father comes home quickly and takes him to the emergency room. The teenager comes out with a splint on his arm and shoulder and a prescription with medication to take. In the days that followed, Israel was still weak and had difficulty walking.
On October 28, his condition deteriorated brutally. So much so that around 9 p.m., his father decided to spend the night in the boy’s room. “I could see that the child was struggling. I called the firefighters, who gave me ambulance.“At the end of the line, the doctor asks questions to the father, then to the boy, before making an appointment for him at SOS Médecin, for 11 p.m. When the appointment is confirmed, it is already 10:10 p.m. By the time the father gets dressed to take the boy to SOS Doctor, the latter is already unconscious.
Her sister called the SAMU who arrived with the firefighters at 10:30 p.m. They can only note the death of the teenager.
The Bourges public prosecutor’s office then opened an investigation. The autopsy carried out on November 5 does not make it possible to rule on the causes of the death of the young footballer from Bourges Football Club. Toxicological examinations and additional analyzes had to be carried out to clarify the causes of his death.
Contacted this Tuesday, November 12, Céline Visiedo, the Bourges prosecutor, has still not responded to us on this subject at the time of publishing these lines.
To date, Israel’s father, Apollinaire Tambu has not yet received official answers on the cause of his son’s death. He hired a lawyer to get it.
“We will do everything we can to ensure that the truth comes out. It’s not just for Israel. For Israel, we will at least have peace, we will know why he left. But it’s also for the other children, so that it doesn’t happen again.”concludes Apollinaire Tambu with sobs in his voice
