This Tuesday, the unrest subsided. The crime puzzle is just beginning to piece together. The day before, nearly 300 people gathered in the evening in front of the quiet residence of Clos Sénart, rue de la Campanule, in Vigneux-sur-Seine. The police were forced to block the street to contain the flow of curious people or relatives who came to meditate. All are trying to understand what happened to Ibrahim Touré.
In the afternoon, the 26-year-old's girlfriend finds him inanimate in bed. According to the first elements of the investigation, he died of head wounds. "Several orifices have been noted," confirms Caroline Nisand, the public prosecutor of Evry. You have to wait for the autopsy result to know exactly what they correspond to and how many there are. The medical exam will take place this Wednesday.
Among the neighbors, it was astonishment on Tuesday. "When I arrived last night and saw the number of police officers, I understood that it was special," said one of them. Usually, for a natural death, there are two or three, but there, there were everywhere ... "
"I think of his family, it must be hard"
This street on the edge of the town of Draveil has never been the scene of such a scene. "These are small buildings, we have no problems here," says the neighbor. I knew this man by sight. Maybe he sought to isolate himself or that he was housed. I think of his family, it must be hard. "
In the neighborhood, the rumor of a settling of accounts against the backdrop of drug trafficking is growing. "It looks like an execution," continues the neighbor. Seeing it close to home is weird. Usually, we see this type of crime on a motorcycle on the street. There, it's downright at home. The operating mode is all the more intriguing for residents as the places are difficult to access. A double code prevents intruders from entering easily.
"Maybe he was looking to isolate himself here ..." assumes a neighbor. In any case, those who did this must be pros, because we heard nothing. The investigation, entrusted to the judicial police of Versailles, will have to determine it.
"He also had the reputation of a go-getter, a respected leader or even feared, recalls a relative. He was probably involved in trafficking without my being certain. The young man has no recent drug trafficking convictions. "He was known to the justice system for stories of violence, especially committed during his minority," said the prosecutor. Most of them were aimed at the police. Since his majority, the man was involved in "a few facts, but fewer convictions".
