According to our information, repeat offender Christophe Khider, detained for 29 years, will be released by the end of December and then placed on an electronic bracelet for 18 months.
The magistrates of the Douai Court of Appeal granted, this Friday, November 29, a reduced sentence to Christophe Khider, detained for 29 years. A decision which risks causing a lot of noise in the ranks of the prison administration. Christophe Khider obtained this sentence modification following his second request filed by his lawyer, the Parisian criminal lawyer, Marie Violleau. He will be released by the end of December, then placed on an electronic bracelet for 18 months. He will then be subject to parole. “This decision is a relief, it brings hope for everyone, for Christophe Khider first, and for society as well. It was time for him to come out,” his lawyer tells us.

Christophe Khider, a particularly notable detainee who was not due to be released until 2044, should begin his driving lessons on August 19 with the aim of obtaining his driving license which he finally obtained.
