An ambush for a simple phone theft?
A 15-year-old teenager was taken into custody for murder, said the Limoges public prosecutor, Émilie Abrantes. “There is no question of rape at all” in this case, she insisted.
Monday evening, the public prosecutor held a press conference providing more information on this sordid affair. According to her, the young man told Inès that he had been asked to give her a gift from a friend. However, the objective of this meeting was to steal his phone.
While Le Figaro claimed that the young man knew the victim, the prosecutor revealed that he had taken a knife to intimidate the teenager. But according to him, the situation escaped him when Inès tried to call her sister for help. In a panic, he said he stabbed her several times.
The suspect quickly identified
During her press conference, the public prosecutor indicated that Inès had left the family home around 6:30 p.m., claiming to have documents to collect for an internship. The teenager’s sister claims to have seen Inès interacting with someone on the social network SnapChap. According to the prosecutor, Inès’ phone was only limited to Isle that evening, before suddenly disappearing from the radar around 6:38 p.m., probably turned off.
Thanks to exchanges on SnapChap spotted by Inès’ sister, the police discovered on Saturday the meeting place of the two young people. On site, however, no video surveillance camera was able to provide further information to investigators. However, they managed to trace the young woman’s interlocutor, which led to her arrest. Initially heard as a witness, the young man, who denied the facts, was finally placed in police custody at 8:45 p.m.
The lifeless body of Inès was found around one o’clock in the morning on Sunday, Allée des Carrières, in Isle. The autopsy is due to take place on Tuesday when around forty wounds were found. Some are considered deep while others could be defense lesions. A judicial investigation was opened for “violent robbery resulting in death” and the 15-year-old boy was referred on Monday. His detention was requested by the prosecutor.
