He is suspected of having inflicted fatal blows on Matisse, 15, who died from his injuries on Saturday April 27, 2024. That day, the young victim had an altercation with a young Afghan, of the same age. The latter will then rise at his house to get a knife. Followed by his mother, who allegedly hit Matisse just after being touched by her son, the young man will stab the victim several times.
Taken to hospital, he died of his injuries. According to our colleagues at Figarothe teenager would have filmed himself a few hours before his act with a knife, wandering around the city.
The suspect in the murder of Matisse would be driven by a feeling of revenge
For some unknown reason, he “seems to be driven by a feeling of revenge”, write our colleagues from Figaro who were able to authenticate the video. “Wallah (I swear to God in Arabic, Editor’s note), now I’m going to go to this son of a bitch’s house. Wallah I have too much hatred (…) I’m going to ring this son of a bitch’s doorbell. If he doesn’t answer, on my mother’s head I’m going to n***** his mother”, he blurted out in front of a building.
If he is indicted as part of the investigation into the death of Matisse, the teenager was also arrested the week before the tragedy for having put a knife to the throat of another young man. According to Le Figaro, “An ambush would have been set on the internet for the victim in order to steal his cell phone”.
Already arrested for putting a knife to the throat of another young man
On social networks, the teenager boasts of not liking the police or of wanting revenge. “In several recent videos, probably filmed from the family apartment, the minor films an anti-crime brigade (BAC) vehicle patrolling a nearby parking lot. The images are accompanied by anti-police lyricslike “Fuck le 17” or “I don’t like the police”, sung by the rappers H. La Drogue and Alonzo”.
According to some of his friends, the young man is unstable and would be “ready to spin at any moment”. “He is a “random” person, we cannot predict his actions. You can laugh with him and an hour later he is totally different.”
