The Nanterre prosecutor’s office confirmed the opening of an investigation by the leaders of voluntary homicide and attempts at voluntary homicide. It was entrusted to the departmental judicial police service of Hauts-de-Seine (SDPJ 92).
Five people in police custody
According to the same source, “five people are currently in police custody” and “the investigations are underway to try to determine with certainty the circumstances and the course of the facts”.
No details have been given at this stage on the possible track of a settlement of accounts in the prostitution. The Parisian, however, evokes an “altercation between prostitutes” as a starting point for this drama.
A source close to the file described the situation as “disorder”.
An altercation in a rented apartment
According to the first elements, a conflict broke out between people presented as two prostitutes, their two bodyguards and two customers, in a short -term apartment in Colombes.
The police, who arrived on the spot, found one of the prostitutes in cardio-respiratory arrest, injured in the chest. She died around 4 am.
Wounds inflicted on a stabbing
One of the bodyguards was also injured in the chest. His condition was deemed serious, without committed vital prognosis. The two customers, on the other hand, were more slightly injured, also with stabbing weapons.
The two people who are not injured – a prostitute and a bodyguard – were placed in police custody. The three injured are in deferred police custody, awaiting their exit from the hospital.
