“I arrive late by car, I don’t want to go. I am good with my wife and my daughter, he says. I see my brother with these two people. It surprised me, I see them in ski clothes. Until the reenactment, I didn’t know where everyone got in the car.

At the wheel, the young man hears “gunshots”. Like a machine gun. My brother, I don’t know where he went. I stay stuck, I stall. According to his memories, he gets out of the car and gets shot. He calls his brother in the dark. No answer.

“What is your credit? »

Why did they have an appointment in this residence parking lot in the middle of the night? “To have a drink”. “They say it’s for a carrot… (stealing drugs, editor’s note)“.

The victim, Samy, was armed that night. “My little brother was under pressure every day. We tried to assassinate him in September”. Because, a few months before, in a PMU of Papus, a man had lost his life in a shooting. “We were told that a man wanted to kill Sami. At that time, he was annoyed because he wanted to recover Tabar’s deal point (he had lost it during an incarceration, editor’s note). But he wanted to do it with pies, not with bullets. For that, we needed a team”.

Encouraged by his lawyers, Mes Pierre Dunac and Christian Etelin, Medhi held firm then the tension rose against Mes Alexandre Parra-Bruguière, Jacques Derieux, Alexandre Martin and Emmanuelle Franck, for the defense. “What is your credit on this evening and the fact that you were going to have a drink…”
