The 32-year-old is accused of stabbing his partner, their 8-month-old baby and a neighbor who tried to intervene on October 10. “I did not intend to kill her, even my son and the other victim,” he declared this Monday, via an Arabic interpreter, in court.

The accused, aged 32, must also answer for domestic violence committed on May 6, still in Viry-Chatillon, for which he faces a sentence of life imprisonment.
