From June 2 to 10, 2019 in the metropolis…
From June 2 to 10, 2019 in the Bordeaux metropolis, he, with the complicity of a woman, organized and profited from the prostitution of a young 17-year-old woman. However, the victim’s minority was not retained in the investigation of the case, the two defendants not having been aware of it.
In early June 2019, he met an escort in Nantes via a chat site. They agree on an appointment for a performance of five hours at 1,000 euros. He then offers to accompany him to La Baule by carpooling. She accepts. According to her testimony, she fell asleep in the car and woke up in… Bordeaux.
A hundred passes in a week
There, Ossama Mouhtarim seeks the help of another escort with whom he has a relationship that the public prosecutor will describe as “ambivalent”. Without being in a relationship, they seem to have a romantic relationship enamelled with violence. At the helm, her co-defendant rather evokes the influence of the one she designates as her pimp. “He said I wasn’t bringing him enough money anymore. »
So when he asks her to help him organize the prostitution of the young escort brought back from Nantes, she doesn’t say no. “I’m not going to lie to you,” she says to the president, wringing her hands, “instead of having 100, having 50… We shared the tasks,” she explains, referring to the number of passes to be made. After two nights in a hotel, the week continues in her apartment in Floirac, for the sake of savings.
“Not a White Goose”
The 31-year-old accomplice creates escort accounts for the young woman, photographing her in suggestive poses. He is in charge of going to buy prepaid telephones. An effective organization, since according to the testimony of the victim, she would have had paid sex with a hundred men during her week spent in Bordeaux, for an estimated sum of around 10,000 euros, largely recovered by Ossama Muhtarim.
“It was work 24 hours a day,” the 22-year-old victim testified confidently at the bar today. Long wavy hair, black line at the corner of the eyes, she explains that she did not flee because “he scared me”. “How can I not feel watched”, she challenged Me Sandrine Joinau-Dumail, the defendant’s lawyer, who later recalled that the victim was “not the white goose that we want to describe” since she had been doing this work since April .
Already convicted in 2017 for pimping, Ossama Mouhtarim was sentenced to 24 months in prison, six of which were suspended, without a warrant. His co-defendant was sentenced to 12 months in prison with a full probationary reprieve. “This is a firm warning,” warned the president.
