We had to wait ten days for Chloé's ex-partner to be interviewed by investigators. From a source close to the investigation, the man found seriously injured in the car alongside the victim on October 20 was finally indicted on his hospital bed on Friday November 1.
On Wednesday October 30, the STPJ police officers in Reunion received the green light from doctors to interview the man who was the main suspect in the murder of the 34-year-old Possessionnaise, mother of two children. And it was still in his hospital room that he received a visit two days later from a Dionysian investigating judge, who notified him of his indictment.
According to our information, a decision to place him in pre-trial detention was taken against the thirty-year-old, placed in custody in the prison room of the Saint-Denis University Hospital.
On the night of Saturday October 19 to Sunday October 20, the lifeless body of a woman who had received several stab wounds was discovered in a car parked at the entrance to the Port-Est. At her side, her ex-companion and father of her children, also seriously injured in the throat. A bloody knife was found in the passenger compartment.
Saved by emergency services but still in critical condition, the man was initially unable to be heard. So much so that the prosecution decided to open a judicial investigation against X on charges of murder and attempted murder.
While specifying that “one of the working hypotheses” was “that of a murder by a spouse, followed by a suicide attempt by the latter.” But without excluding “the intervention of a third party based on the results of the first investigations.”
If nothing leaked from the thirty-year-old's hearing, it did not help to remove the suspicions weighing on him. Especially since the macabre discovery occurred in a context of difficult separation.
On October 14, the victim went to the La Possession gendarmerie to file a complaint for domestic violence. Until then, the couple still lived under the same roof.
Chloé had not given any news since Saturday October 19 in the morning, causing concern among those close to her who then went looking for her. Finally finding the vehicle near the dock, shortly after midnight on the night of Saturday to Sunday.
