It happened during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday. A 47-year-old man well known in Parisian gangster circles was beaten to death in the lobby of a building in the 20th arrondissement of Paris. The attack occurred around midnight in the Amandiers district. The 47-year-old victim died of cardio-respiratory arrest according to information from the Parisian.
Although the circumstances of this attack are still unclear, a witness claims to have witnessed the scene, and even apparently filmed part of the attack before contacting the authorities. The two attackers, who fled after the murder, are still being sought. The criminal brigade was put in charge of the investigation, and a call for witnesses was launched to advance the investigations.
Untraceable suspects
The victim, identified as Mounir C., was an individual already well known to the police for his involvement in criminal cases. Originally from the Amandiers district, an area popular with drug traffickers, he had already been convicted several times. In 2000, he was tried for complicity in murder and attempted murder, following a shooting in the same neighborhood. After appealing his conviction, he saw his sentence increased to fifteen years in prison.
This murder, which shocked the residents of the neighborhood, still leaves many questions hanging. For the moment, the authorities are still trying to determine the motivations for this crime. As for the perpetrators of the attack, they remain untraceable for the moment.
