During the night from Saturday to Sunday, around three o'clock in the morning, a naked and mutilated woman was found in the middle of the street in Aubervilliers (Seine-Saint-Denis).
Supported by the emergency services, she did not seem to have all her mental faculties and was hospitalized at the Delafontaine hospital in Saint-Denis.
She presented sexual mutilation on her body: when she arrived at the emergency room, the medical teams discovered that the vaginal lips had been stuck with glue.
On her belly, a hard-to-read word was also engraved with a sharp object.
Traces of ties were also discovered on the wrists of this young woman, which would indicate that she could have been tied.
Investigation for "rape with torture and acts of barbarism"
On Monday, the woman remained silent.
The next day, she still could not be auditioned.
The Bobigny prosecutor's office opened an investigation for "rape with torture and acts of barbarism", entrusted to the SDPJ (sub-directorate of the judicial police) 93.
To advance in the investigation, the police headquarters issued a call for witnesses on Friday.
The victim is a 39-year-old Pakistani woman, likely to be called Katalera K. Nearly a week after her violent attack, she is still hospitalized.
The police specify that the victim is “small in stature, of strong build, with several tattoos”.
She was found at 117, rue Charles Tillon in Aubervilliers.
Anyone "likely to provide information of interest to the investigation" is invited to contact the Paris judicial police at the following toll-free number: 0800 00 27 08, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, or by email at the following address: pppj-appelatemoin@interieur.gouv.fr
