“The autopsy of the victim makes it possible to exclude the intervention of a third party at this stage.“. The concise statement from the Marseille prosecutor's office removes some of the doubt about the death of the journalist and documentarian Marine Vlahovic. The body of the 39-year-old young woman, former correspondent in Gaza for numerous French-speaking media, was found on the roof terrace of his apartment on November 25 in the 1st arrondissement of Marseille.
Established in the Marseille city for 4 years, Marine Vlahovic had stopped covering current events to devote herself to documentaries, but she had remained in close contact with her Gazan colleagues and had taken steps, in vain, to return to Palestinian territory. According to some of those close to her, she was planning to go to Cairo, Egypt.
The circumstances of the death of Marine Vlahovic led the Marseille prosecutor's office to open an investigation by the head of “rsearch for causes of death“The criminal trail now seems to have been ruled out. However, indicates the prosecution, “toxicological analyzes are underway“.
