It’s a mystery that may take time to shed light on. While Kendji Girac is now out of the woods after having undergone surgery in Bordeaux, investigators continue to interview the singer’s relatives. Soraya, the artist’s wife, was heard and gave her version of the facts.
It was during the night of Sunday to Monday April 22 that Kendji Girac was shot in the chest. The singer “received a projectile at chest level with an exit point at back level” while he was at a traveler reception area, in Biscarrosse, in the Landes. He was found by firefighters around 5:30 a.m. on the ground and in serious condition. According to the first statements of the former candidate of The Voicehe allegedly mishandled a weapon bought the day before in a flea market in La Teste-de-Buch, in Gironde.
Operated since in Bordeaux, Kendji Girac would be “out of the woods”, according to statements by Hakim Nassouh, the 27-year-old singer’s manager. In a telephone interview with AFP he assured: “He spoke to me. He’s out of the woods. He’s fine.”. The relative of Eva Alba’s dad also stressed that “The operation went well” and that statements from relatives of the interpreter of Bebeto will be made “in proper time”. An investigation was opened to “attempted homicide” and the investigators’ interviews already provide the first clues concerning the course of what would be a domestic accident.
“The singer’s wife allegedly told him to go listen to his music in his car”
According to BFMTV, which cites a Source close to the investigation, “the first hearings of the investigators as well as the material findings tend to confirm that Kendji Girac was alone at the time he was shot.”. Soraya, the singer’s companion, as well as the latter’s uncle and aunt are among those heard. “After returning at 2:40 a.m. from a casino, the singer’s wife allegedly told him to go listen to his music in his car, that’s when the gunshot was heard”indicate our colleagues.
A version which seems to agree with that of Kendji Girac, who claimed that it was an accident. The investigation continues and the artist can count on the support of his loved ones since nearly 70 caravans traveled from the Biscarrosse reception area to Bordeaux to get closer to the hospital where the 27-year-old man is currently located. “We decided to go to Bordeaux with our caravans to support Kendji. We will stay there as long as necessary, until he is released from the hospital.”, confided a member of the procession. Unity is strength.
