Will he benefit from an electronic bracelet as his lawyers Jean-Philippe Maince and Dimitri de Beco have once once more pleaded or will he be kept in prison as requested by the deputy of the king’s prosecutor Stéphanie Bonté?
The content of the order was not known to us on Monday evening, but in any case, whatever the position adopted by the president of the chamber of council, it is certain that the file will once once more take the direction of Brussels in order to be examined in the court of appeal by the indictment chamber.
“Again” ? She looked into the question for the first time at the request of the defense lawyers who were unhappy to note that, on July 24, the chamber had not granted their request to grant him an electronic bracelet. She dismissed them on August 4.
These lawyers once more reiterated this Monday their conviction that their client was in the conditions to benefit from this bracelet which is not synonymous with definitive or conditional release, but an alternative to detention in a cell before the trial.
According to them, the risk of recidivism touted by the prosecution is zero. Nicolas Ullens will never kill once more and society has nothing to fear from his actions. Without talking regarding it clearly, there is another risk, that of talking regarding class justice. Understand that, in the minds of ordinary mortals, justice would be less strict towards a member of the aristocracy or nobility than it would be towards the commoner murderer.
Water has flowed under the bridges since that disastrous March 29 when Nicolas Ullens went to visit his father and Myriam Lechien known as Mimi, the second wife of Baron Guy Ullens. He blamed her for the division that weakened the family and the collapse of the family fortune.
After a discussion of a few minutes, he pretended to leave the property on Chemin Bon Air, in Ohain. In reality, he was waiting for the couple to come out. He grabbed his weapon, a Glock 26 caliber 9 mm Parabellum semi-automatic pistol, with which he fired six times. Five projectiles hit Mimi.
Two charges are brought once morest him, assassination, that is to say premeditated murder, and violation of the law on weapons.
Suspicions of excessive financial favoritism had arisen. The targets were Mimi who notably opened a haute couture house in Paris forced to close down following losses of around fifty million euros, and her children who had benefited from largesse.
Guy Ullens’ four children had also launched procedures in the hope of freezing part of their father’s assets. The court did not agree with them.
Today, Guy Ullens has put his Ohain property up for sale and has started a new life with Manuela Valvecchi, whose husband has died. They formed a couple that Guy Ullens had known well for many years.
Nicolas continues to receive regular visits from his brothers and sister, his wife and their children. He has lost fifteen kilos, his morale is up and down. The investigation remains described as “top secret”, but it is said that the conclusions of the preliminary report of the psychiatric experts would not be particularly unfavorable to it. In particular, they were asked to examine the question of what state of mind the person concerned was in at the time of the events. Were his faculties of discernment barely or somewhat diminished, or abolished? Good food for his lawyers?
