The body of a man was found in the room of a social hotel in Sartrouville, in Yvelines. Saturday, December 14 at the beginning of the afternoon, another resident of the hotel was worried about not having seen the victim for twenty-four hours. Having the key, he enters the room that the victim occupied, without breaking in, and discovers her, bloody, lifeless, in the shower. The man, aged around forty, was withdrawn into himself.
The witness alerts the police station, which dispatches a team to the scene. The police found the man dead. Of the traces of cuts are observed on the victim’s body. Cuts potentially caused by a knife, indicates the Versailles public prosecutor’s office. No bladed weapon was found on site. “The room was upside downwith stuff all over the floor”specifies the prosecution, “but this is not necessarily a sign that the victim struggled with his attacker. We believe that the man could also have lived a long time in this mess.”
Sunday December 15, no suspect had been taken into custody. The judicial police are seized of the investigation opened for intentional homicide. But the prosecution indicates that it cannot determine whether it is indeed a homicide. An autopsy will be carried out in the coming days.
