“An unprecedented ferocity” et “ultrayouth”. Nicolas Bessone, public prosecutor of Marseille, clarified on Sunday 6 October that the victim of Wednesday’s “drug murder”, “stabbed with fifty knife wounds and burned alive”was a 15-year-old teenager and that the alleged Friday’s killer is 14 years old.
The two cases are connected, he added at a press conference on Sunday morning, underlining that the victim of the second murder, a 36-year-old father, VTC driver and amateur footballer known in the region, was “totally external to drug trafficking” which are plaguing France’s second largest city.
“We have ultra-rejuvenation” perpetrators and an external victim Friday not hit by a stray bullet, but “cold slaughtered”the prosecutor insisted, underlining “one more degree” crossed and “a total loss of orientation”.
Friday’s narcocide, which therefore did not achieve its intended objective, was the planned revenge of Wednesday’s, the magistrate also underlined, evoking “the context of the adversary conflict in the 3rd arrondissement of Marseille [le clan de] the DZ mafia and the so-called “Neri” clan of the city of Félix-Pyat for the acquisition of the store in the city of Moulin de Mai »to Belle de Mai.

The teenager was killed on Wednesday as part of the execution of a contract for which he had been hired for 2,000 euros, via social networks, by a 23-year-old man detained in the Luynes penitentiary centre, near Aix-en-California Provence. and presenting himself as belonging to the DZ mafia. The young man knew the teenager because the latter, according to the Prosecutor’s Office, was a “jobber”, that is, a small-time collaborator in drug trafficking.
Presumably going to intimidate a competitor, the teenager, accompanied by another 15-year-old teenager, was noticed by a gang present at the foot of the building, and only then did they notice that he was carrying a gun, he was going “he will be stabbed with fifty stab wounds and taken to the city of Fonscolombes where, according to the results of the autopsy, he will be burned alive in a scene of rare ferocity otherwise unheard of”. The judicial police arrested the second minor, 15 years old, who managed to escape. He was brought before an investigating judge to be charged.
Following this death, the same Luynes inmate sponsored a second “CONTRACT” to take revenge and kill a gang member « Blacks »for 50,000 euros this time. «He recruited a 14-year-old minor from Vaucluse in exactly the same way and organized all the logistics of picking him up in the car and taking him to a hotel room in Marseille. The young man also carried a 357 Magnum revolver with him.”said the Marseille prosecutor
Having left to carry out his mission aboard a VTC, the teenager, accompanied by another individual, allegedly asked the driver to wait for him. But he refused, arousing the anger of the minor who shot “a fatal bullet to the back of the head” with the 357 Magnum pistol he was armed with. He escapes, hides nearby and asks the sponsor for an exfiltration. But “for an unknown reason”the latter calls the police and reports it then the 14 year old teenager is arrested. The identified sponsor was taken from the pre-trial detention center before being released on Sunday.
