Disillusioned faces, fatalistic smirks. This Tuesday, September 26, Mohamed Ben Chouikha, a 19-year-old Tunisian, and Ali Mazouzi, a 23-year-old Algerian, received their sentence in the glass box of the Bordeaux judicial court, five and four years for their participation in a form of expedition punitive action in La Réole, the night of June 6, 2022.

Around 1:15 a.m., several men, hooded over their heads, emerged from a car on Avenue de la Victoire, near a certain Ghaith. He tries to flee, almost jumps a low wall and finds himself attacked, gassed and suffering from several stab wounds, including five to the chest and abdomen. Admitted to intensive care, the victim escaped with 20 days of total work interruption (ITT). First opened for attempted assassination, the investigation will be reclassified as violence with aggravating circumstances.

Victim expelled

In the box, the two defendants in pre-trial detention for fifteen months deny any participation, although confused by boundaries and telephone interceptions. Mohamed Ben Chouikha knows the victim. Moreover, he wanted to put an end to the threats made by her once morest his family, and admitted having taken the road from the Bordeaux district of Aubiers to La Réole with “two colleagues”. But the trio turned back when they arrived in front of the La Réole bridge, where “a festival” was being held, their lawyer said. Ali Mazouzi has nothing to do with it, either closely or remotely: “Madam Judge, I have never been to La Réole. »

The prosecutor, who does not exclude an underlying dispute around “narcotics”, requires four years firm for the first, three years firm for the second. Their lawyers Guillaume Larre and Marine Gautreau are working to point out the supposed weaknesses of the case, the profile of Ben Chouikha, which does not really correspond to the “little fat guy” presented by the victim. Or the passage of the incriminated vehicle at the Saint-Selve tollbooth at 1:26 a.m., or 14 minutes following the fight. As for the victim, whose versions have evolved, she is not present: she was deported to her country, to Tunisia.

By handing down sentences of four and five years, the court went beyond the requisitions. Added to this are ten years of ban from French territory upon their release from prison.
