2020-10-11T16:00:45.621Z


A 25-year-old man was sentenced to 18 months in prison on Friday for beating up a bad payer over illegal rental


The main problem with hiring your car illegally is that if it is damaged, the remedies are limited.

This is what Anas, a young man of 25, has just experienced, who has found nothing better than to break the two arms of one of his recalcitrant clients on September 5 in Limay.

He was sentenced for these facts, Friday by the correctional court of Versailles, to a sentence of two years in prison including eighteen months firm.

“It is a fairly common practice, underlines the prosecutor.

These scammers buy cars they sell on behalf of bogus companies and make money by hiring them illegally.

But when things go wrong, they can only play the big guys ”.

“I hadn't come to fight!

"

Anas had therefore rented a DS4 belonging to her in Mamadou for a period of one week at the end of August.

Eight days later, the "client" wishes to extend the duration and keeps the car a little.

Then sounds reach Anas' ears, a rumor that his car has been damaged.

The hidden lessor calls his client who confirms that the rear-view mirror and the bodywork have been damaged.

But the latter ensures that he will take care of the repairs.

Anas waits, sees nothing coming and, on the contrary, Mamadou ends up telling her that he will not take care of it although he already owes him 1000 euros for the rental.

"I started looking for him to recover my DS4 before learning that he was at his girlfriend's in Limay", explains the defendant.

Anas goes there and sees his car arrive from which two strangers come out.

“I asked them where the key was and one of them told me that it was on the dashboard but that Mamadou was going to get off,” says the young man.

I put my dog ​​in the car and the guy who answered me hit me on the back with an iron bar.

I disarmed him and hit him.

When Mamadou came down, I hit him too, but originally I didn't come to fight!

"

"My client is known to be a calm Olympian"

Shortly after, the police arrive and discover Mamadou with both broken arms in the hall of the building.

The first victim with a facial injury has already been to hospital.

At first, Mamadou refuses to explain himself to the police, he intends to settle this affair by himself.

Anas will however be quickly identified thanks to the help of two witnesses and, ultimately, the victim.

Arrested, the young man, who also works as a windshield repairer, will deny the facts while in custody.

Anas' lawyer, Me Isabelle Felenbok, believes that this file "is a bit strange" because "it contains strange victims.

»« My client, known to be calm Olympian, was seized with a great anger when he saw his car passing from hand to hand and in addition, which was damaged.

I remind you that it was not he who came armed, ”she pleaded.

She wanted Anas to serve her sentence by being equipped with an electronic bracelet.

The court decided to keep him in detention.
