Arrested almost two months after the death of his partner, a man confessed to being the murderer. Indicted, he indicated that he had fallen in love on the Internet with a woman who in reality was none other than a grazer.
Confession. After more than a month and a half of investigation, the gendarmes of the Lille and Écuires research brigade arrested, on Monday March 11, a man accused of the feminicide of his partner, reports France 3. Placed in police custody , Nicholas. H admitted “having killed his partner by having premeditated his action”, explained the Boulogne-sur-Mer Public Prosecutor’s Office. A new tragedy which increases the number of feminicides to 33 since the start of the year, according to a count carried out by the Nous tous collective. Presented to the investigating magistrate this Wednesday March 13, Nicolas H. was indicted for “intentional homicide” for the murder of his partner, reports France Bleu.
In order to explain his terrible gesture, Nicolas H. explained to investigators that he had an emotional relationship on the Internet with another woman. Except that, the man would have paid the price of a scam, and the woman in question was in reality… a grazer, that is to say a scammer located most often in West Africa, indicated Guirec Le Bras, the prosecutor of Boulogne-sur-Mer, reports France 3. Browsers generally create false identities on the Internet with the aim of seducing Internet users to the point of extorting large sums of money from them.
As a reminder, on January 28, the lifeless body of Alicia P., aged 28, was found at her home in Beussent (Pas-de-Calais). Her partner then told the police that he had discovered his partner’s body when returning from the bakery. At the time, Nicolas H. put forward the hypothesis of a theft that had gone wrong. An investigation into “murder” and “violent robbery resulting in death” had therefore initially been opened. A lead finally dismissed by the investigators after several inconsistencies and the discovery of this emotional relationship established on social networks, which have since led to the confessions of the accused.
