The price of his “sacrifice” is thirty years of imprisonment.
Unsurprisingly, this Thursday morning at the Val-de-Marne Assize Court, the maximum sentence was requested by the attorney general against Shamran.
This former employee of the Franprix in Quincy-sous-Sénart (Essonne), aged 38, is accused of having strangled Sandra, a young 23-year-old student, to death in her convenience store in May 2019.
Throughout the trial, this Pakistani insisted on attributing this murder to a mysterious Romanian.
A “totally cheeky” version, according to the public prosecutor.
“I thought he would eventually admit,” he said.
But he didn't have the courage to face his guilt.
An additional slap in the face to Sandra's memory.
» The sacrifice, according to the representative of the company, is also this obstinacy in saying that he had transported the victim's body alone in the trunk of his car.
The attorney general didn't believe that either.
“Clan omerta” blacklisted
Shamran benefited from “the unconditional support of his clan”.
To move the corpse, to “exfiltrate” the murderer to Italy, and to “conceal the act”.
The public prosecutor, however, cited “the weakness of the direct evidence”.
He requested three years in prison, including one year against the three relatives.
The latter showed a smile during the suspension of the hearing.
On the contrary, naturally, from Sandra's family and friends.
A parallel was also drawn by the Advocate General between these two “clans”.
On the one hand the victim's friends, who did everything to find her, and on the other the "terrifying solidarity" shown by the Pakistanis.
“Two sides of the same coin”, summarized the public prosecutor.
For him, there is little doubt about the motive.
It must be found "in the register of sexual frustration", on the part of a virgin man with a look deemed vicious by several protagonists in the affair.
In particular the Franprix customers and the wife of one of the three co-defendants.
“Give heavy sentences”
The women, during this investigation, “were the only ones who dared to speak”, underlined Me Julie Granier, who represented the civil parties with Clara Lalanne.
It is thanks to the wives of the accused that part of the truth was undoubtedly revealed.
But, again, at the hearing, “they went back on their statements” under “pressure from the clan” which “prevented the release of speech”, according to the lawyer.
And to urge the jurors to find the four accused guilty.
“Take Sandra with you and impose heavy sentences to put an end to this omerta.
» The defense was to plead this Thursday afternoon.
The verdict is expected this Friday.
