A 33-year-old man was indicted and imprisoned following attacking a woman who was a prostitute in Paris on November 8, who died three days later of her injuries, we learned on Tuesday from a judicial source. According to this source, confirming information from the “Parisian”, the alleged murderer, domiciled in Île-de-France, was charged by a Parisian investigating judge and imprisoned on November 11 for “attempted voluntary homicide”.
The accused is suspected of having “turned once morest the prostituted woman” whose client he was by attacking her very violently, from the same source. The facts occurred in a street in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, shortly before 6 a.m., said a source close to the investigation. The suspect kicked him several times “extremely violently”, added this source.
Serious head injury
It was a “night watchman” who discovered the victim, injured in the head, the source said. The woman died of her injuries three days later, which should change the criminal characterization of the charges once morest the suspect. The associations very regularly denounce the violence suffered by prostitutes. “One more colleague murdered in the middle of Paris in general indifference”, reacted the sex work union STRASS on Twitter on Tuesday.
