Members of Yuefeng Jiang's family took the stand in the morning in front of the Paris criminal court. The accused, Youssef, 33, has been appearing since Monday for having committed violence leading to death, under the influence of alcohol and accompanied by racist remarks.
For the victim's widow, his sister and the daughter, racism against the Chinese is at the heart of this sad story. “He was a man who had a great joy in life. He showed great empathy. Between him and me it was immediately passionate,” she explains.
