Zakaria, 15, killed by a stab wound on the eve of Eid, Tuesday evening, casts a new pale spotlight on the sensitive neighborhood. The boy, who returned to spend a few days at La Monnaie as the breakup approached, was stabbed to death.

Special envoy to Romans-sur-Isère: The tragedy awakens the memory of the murder of Thomas, the accused in which came from the neighborhood.
