The man in question had been on a permanent contract with the company for twelve years. He disappeared overnight, giving no sign of life. More surprisingly, he apparently lived in the same region as the teenager, “very close” to her home, according to the testimony broadcast on M6. Fanny Groll, Lina's mother, who took part in the show “Call for help” witnesses,” said he had never heard of this lead before the broadcast of the program. “This is a lead that we will give immediately to the police, it's still very strange that all of a sudden, at the same time, in the same place, someone disappears,” wonders Julien Courbet, presenter of the show.
