US EditionHomeless Man Charged After Four Bodies Discovered in the River Seine
A homeless man of North African appearance was charged with killing four men found in the Seine; at least two victims were strangled, prosecutors said.
- On Aug 24, a French judge in Créteil charged a homeless man with the murders of four men found in the River Seine, prompting a 'multiple murders' indictment.
- On Aug 13, crews pulled four bodies from the Seine in Choisy-le-Roi, including two homeless men aged 21 and 26 from Algeria and Tunisia, a 48-year-old Frenchman, and another 21-year-old Algerian; two were partially naked.
- Investigators say CCTV and phone records placed him near the recovery sites, autopsy findings affected two victims, and he faced Aug 20 detention plus an Aug 5 prior detention with victim documents.
- Prosecutors in Créteil requested pre-trial detention and launched a judicial inquiry classified as “murders committed in concert,” enabling extended questioning and special techniques.
- Despite charges, the suspect's identity remains unclear: an Arabic document suggested Monji H., Tunisian, but he self-identified as Ahmed, 24, Algerian, and the Cr�teil prosecutor's office offered no motive hypothesis or homophobic aggravator Sunday.
