[Regnum] The murder of a teenager in a provincial town provoked serious passions in France. The nationality of the alleged killers is to blame. And although such crimes occur in France with alarming regularity, the incident caused a strong resonance both in a society experiencing difficult social and economic times, and among politicians in the context of the upcoming elections to the European Parliament. Sixteen-year-old rugby player Thomas Perotto was killed on the night of November 18-19 in the town of Crepol. The tragedy occurred at an annually organized city festival, in which residents and invitees participate. According to one version of the investigation, during a party between teenagers and visitors who came from the Monnet quarter, located in the neighboring city of Roman-sur-Isère, a quarrel occurred.
So far, police have made 20 arrests and interviewed 104 witnesses. Some of them say that "outsiders" made aggressive statements towards "whites". According to another version, the quarrel was provoked by Tom’s friend, bullying the “guests”, using the words of the song that was playing at that time. |
