The three girls then walk rue du Faubourg Montmartre in the 9th arrondissement. While Malvina is on her phone, she looks up and sees "

a gentleman coming in the distance, with a determined step

". “

He's coming up to us, and there I hear a big boom, and I feel a sharp pain on my face. At that point, I lie down on the floor,

”she recalls. She doesn't know him, hasn't spoken to him, he hasn't stolen anything from her, the man just hit him "for

free

". The attacker then continued "

quietly on his way

", "

nobody stopped him", she

tells us.

Around her, a few people get busy and put her in a safety position.

Others are there for the show,

” she said at the time.

Firefighters are called and arrive in about seven minutes.

In the distance, she hears voices saying "

she must be drunk

", without being able to answer them.

Malvina and the firefighters then wait for the police to arrive.

But after 45 minutes, they never arrived.

The firefighters told me they were overwhelmed

”.

They therefore decide to go to the hospital without waiting any longer.

Substantial physical and moral damage

Once in the Lariboisière emergency room, Malvina is told that she must wait 3 hours before being taken care of. She then asks the doctor if she can return to Essonne for treatment, he gives her his consent. His girlfriend therefore accompanies him to the ophthalmological emergency room in Villeneuve st Georges. After the consultation, they detail her lesions: "

Edema in the right orbit, a subconjunctival hemorrhage in the right eye, a fracture of the nose, a fracture of the orbit floor requiring surgery, edema and a bruise. on the middle level of the face, and a decrease in the sensitivity of the right hemiface

"It's a trauma I didn't deserve"

The next day, Malvina will file a complaint against X at the police station of her department. She describes the man as being "

of European type, aged in his thirties, 1 meter 60, fine build, shoulder-length brown hair a little wavy, with a beard of 2-3 days

", read Le

Figaro

in the hearing report. It seemed to him that the man was wearing a bracelet on the right side, and was dressed in a light cropped baggy with a light T-shirt. "

There were surveillance cameras, the police made a requisition, and the policewoman confirmed to me this morning that they could use them

". “

I want him to be punished,

” she says.

Beyond the physical injuries, which therefore require an operation, Malvina is traumatized: “

I don't sleep, I don't eat, I have nightmares. When I walk in the street and see a man, I immediately change the sidewalk,

”she tells us. “

It's a trauma that I didn't deserve. I never go out, I never do anything. I'm here working as a nurse helping people and I get thanked like that. This is what makes me sick.

"She only hopes for one thing today, which is that her attacker is found, but nevertheless questions:"

Can we be safe in 2021 in Paris?

". Contacted by
