Four people, including businessman Arnaud Mimran, sentenced in June to 13 years imprisonment for his involvement in the kidnapping of a Swiss financier, were taken into police custody Tuesday in a murder case committed in 2014, we learned from a source close to the case.
The other two, Dominique Ghez known as "Dodo", who escaped an assassination attempt at the end of 2016, and Serge Madar called "the former", were arrested by the criminal brigade of the Paris judicial police, in charge of investigations, said this source, confirming information from Le Point.
Arnaud Mimran was taken from his cell.
A murder dating from 2014
The three men are heard at the request of the examining magistrates who are investigating the murder in 2014 of Albert Taieb, a close friend of Cyril Mouly, a crook linked to the protagonists of gigantic carbon tax frauds, including Arnaud Mimran.
According to a court document consulted by AFP, a witness told investigating judges in charge of assassination cases in potential connection with that of Albert Taieb in 2019 that he had been told that Arnaud Mimran had ordered the assassination of Cyril Mouly, but that the murderers "were wrong" and had killed Albert Taieb, designated as his bodyguard or his driver.
Cyril Mouly explained to investigators in another procedure that Arnaud Mimran owed him money, several hundred thousand euros, but did not wish to settle his debt and would therefore have asked for his assassination, but that Albert Taieb had ultimately fell victim.
Arnaud Mimran was already sentenced in 2016 to eight years in prison in the case of the "carbon tax".
He was also indicted and remanded in custody in April as part of the investigation into the 2011 murder of his ex-father-in-law, billionaire Claude Dray, and the 2010 murder of another. figure in the carbon tax case, Samy Souied.
The two cases were joined.
Arnaud Mimran denies any involvement in these two cases.
At the end of June, he made a suicide attempt on his return from prison following his conviction at the sequestration trial of the Swiss financier.
