This Wednesday, February 7, 2024, there are no longer any members of the “Erignac commando” in detention.
This morning, in fact, Alain Ferrandi will see the doors of Borgo prison (Haute-Corsica) close behind him and a conditional release will be granted to him by the courts after nearly 25 years spent behind bars.
The other five defendants have all been free, some for more than ten years.
And the sixth, the most famous of them, Yvan Colonna, died in March 2022 after being attacked by a fellow inmate in Arles prison.
The rest after this ad
Alain Ferrandi, presented as the coordinator of the assassination of prefect Claude Erignac, came close to being released on the very day of the anniversary of the death of his target, executed with several bullets fired into the head on February 6, 1998 in a street in Ajaccio (Southern Corsica).
The symbol would have been unfortunate.
Especially in an affair paved with drama, errors and wanderings.
