“I've been in Marseille for 23 years, I've never seen “that”

In addition to the particularly young age of the alleged murderer, other elements make this case unique. A few hours after the discovery of the body, the police received a call: a man, calling from his prison cell, explained that he was the instigator of the murder. He claims to be a member of the DZ mafia, one of the main gangs involved in drug trafficking in Marseille, details Le Parisien.

A police source told France 3 that the murder “was ordered in response to a settling of scores that took place last week in the same neighborhood.”

“We have never seen anything like this. I have been at Marseille, I have never seen “that”, reacts Rudy Manna, national spokesperson for the Alliance Police union and former departmental secretary of Bouches-du-Rhône, to France 3. “Why [denounce]” ? It's a real question that we ask ourselves. Maybe to scare people. To say “this is what can happen to you if you don't do what you have to do”. An investigation was opened to identify the man who was shot and the circumstances of his death. The alleged killer is expected to appear before an investigating judge this Sunday.
