A file like we encounter more and more at the Nivelles criminal court. It was examined at the hearing on October 11 in the presence of the injured party but in the absence of Jeanne who vanished into thin air.

Gaston met Jeanne on a dating site. From a friendly relationship, it turned into a romantic one for this former director of a company active in the video sector. Jeanne told him regarding carrying out projects in Yaoundé, Cameroon, which seemed to have made him salivate. The first payment dates from November 23, 2019. A loan. It would concern the construction and operation of a restaurant.

He prostitutes his partner and steals her money!

The best things always come to an end, says the adage. Gaston becomes suspicious because his muse tends to be more and more harassing. He ends up realizing that he was manipulated, especially when he learned that the woman had been controlled in a prostitution parlor in Brussels.

The prosecution was not in the mood to grant the slightest favor to the defendant who had used the same modus operandi once morest other Belgians. He requested a two-year prison sentence.

The bank statements analyzed by investigators show that the payments amount to €223,000. When she was interviewed, the person concerned made the following statement: “This money was to buy my love”.

Was the court sensitive to this statement? Still, he acquitted the defendant without reading the judgment and therefore without giving an explanation. A judgment which should not satisfy the prosecution. An appeal is therefore part of the logical order of things.
