The case had surrendered anti-Semitism latent in France, one year after the murder of Sarah Halimi, a Jewish sexagenarian thrown from his balcony. As part of the trial of the murder protagonists of Mireille Knoll, an octogenarian killed eleven knife shots in Paris in March 2018, the parquet asked, Tuesday, November 9, the perpetuity criminal imprisonment at the location of Yacine Mihoub and ten -Hight years of imprisonment for Alex Carrimbacus.

yacine mihoub, 32 years old, is “the only author”, “the solely wild murder responsible for M me Knoll,” said the Advocate General, Jean-Christophe Muller, in front of The Assize Court of Paris. He acted so “because it was in a state of vulnerability”, in “a context of anti-Semitism”. The Crown has made its requisition to the perpetuity imprisonment of an eighteen-year-old security period at the location of Mr. Mihoub, already sentenced six times, including sexual assault.

m. Carrimbacus, 25, is “nor an accomplice, neither co-author of murder” but by “contamination”, its anti-Semitic character “is also attributable,” added the Advocate General. He claimed a sentence of eighteen years of criminal imprisonment for aggravated theft, with a nine-year security period.

In addition, three years’ imprisonment were requested from Yacine Mihoub’s mother, Zulikha Khellab, 61 years old. She is accused of destroying objects related to the crime scene and cleaned the knife used to kill Mireille Knoll.

Discussion on “Jews and money”

On March 23, 2018, the firefighters called for a fire in an Eastern HLM discovered on his medical bed the Mireille Knoll body, heated with eleven knife stabs and partly calcined. During the survey and throughout the trial, the two accused delivered versions that compete, pushes each other from the murder, and rejected any accusation of anti-Semitism. However, during his custody, Alex Carrimbacus had mentioned a discussion of “Jews and money” who would have caused a reaction of M me Knoll. According to Mihoub, nothing of all is true.

If, after two and a half weeks, the hearing did not make it possible to establish a probative truth, it has, in any case, updated “the respective propensity to the lie of the two accused”, as emphasizes the Prosecution in his order. In this maze, the jury will have to make a judgment that will tell the judicial truth. A truth that could leave Mireille Knoll’s children in a form of disarray. “We want to know who did what, had launched Daniel Knoll. If, at the end of this trial, we still do not know the truth, we will leave one day and we will miss something.” Verdict, Wednesday 10 November.
