"Yes, sir is someone dangerous, says this Monday, in hearing, Marie-Céline Lawrysz, prosecutor of the Republic Compiègne. I think the next time I see ma'am, she'll be between four boards. Her face was swollen, half of her face is blue, she has traces of strangulation. It's his thing, it belongs to him. »
In front of her, Khalil B., 53, is on trial for violence committed on April 13 on his girlfriend, a repeat offender. However, already convicted for similar facts in 2021, this Compiegnois trader was no longer allowed to contact the victim. But the couple says they love each other and regularly flout the court decision.
"She calls me when she needs to, if she has a problem," the defendant said. She cries on the phone and I love her, I want to help her. The defendant denies all the charges against him. The latest violence? That evening, he admits to having elbowed "unintentionally", and this is how Samira would have fallen (the name has been changed).
'She's terrified'
On April 13, she called him to offer him dinner at her home, in a village located a few kilometers from Compiègne. Khalid B. brings back food. But when he sees a cigarette butt in the kitchen, he gets carried away... A passing friend discovers the couple on the ground, the man on his victim, blocking his wrists. The gendarmes are warned.
When the soldiers arrive at her home, they discover Samira, in her pajamas and wrapped in a scarf, a hat on her head, despite the more than mild weather. The woman tries, in vain, to hide her injuries, then evokes a fall down the stairs before acknowledging the violence she has suffered.
"She is terrified, no longer leaves her house and has attempted suicide. She was punched, strangled and dragged to the ground for 30 to 40 meters," the prosecutor's office said. Khalil B. believes he has the answer to everything. She is the one who would have stood in the way of his car, and if he "pulled" her, it was to "get her home".
A shotgun and a shotgun found in his home
Khalid B. also denies the death threats made against Samira, threats that take on a different dimension following the search of her home: at his home, the soldiers discover a shotgun and a shotgun. And the defendant to continue in the same vein: "They do not work"; "These are gifts." An authorization? He didn't know... The weapons were confiscated.
A defense that did not convince the court of Compiègne. For the events of 13 April, he was sentenced to one year in prison. In addition, 15 months suspended sentence from a previous conviction were revoked, bringing to two years and three months the time he will have to spend in detention, where he was brought at the end of the hearing.
