Nice attack: two hundred investigators looking for possible accomplices – La Voix du Nord

The wife of Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel released, there were still seven people in custody Sunday . The young woman, who wished their separation, tired of too much violence, was not worried.

The other five men are from the immediate entourage of the truck driver, which at less (aged 22) is believed to have provided “ logistics ,” and a couple of Albanians which man (38 years) is suspected to be the supplier of the handgun with which Lahouaiej fired at the police.

But if that’s the case, they knew the Tunisian project for 31 years described as so silent? If so, that would make them true accomplices, and that’s exactly what investigators are looking now. potential accomplices.

Several text messages

We now know, for analyzing its phone , the young man sent several text messages, before committing the crime. In one of them, it seemed to ask for arms. In another, he was photographed at the wheel of the truck and sent the image to multiple recipients, and in yet another, he was pleased to have obtained the 7.65 pistol.

recipients of these messages are clearly tracked. Some are probably already in custody. However, others are mostly heard as witnesses of what Lahouaiej of life in his last days. One of them spoke of “ a sudden radicalization ,” which made mention Bernard Cazeneuve Saturday. So sudden that it probably surprised those who were witnesses. Until then, the delivery driver of abattoir district did not seem very focused on religion, but on sports, alcohol and women’s meetings.

However, it is becoming increasingly clear that his act Thursday night was planned for days, and even carefully prepared . City surveillance cameras show trying to locate places of his crime, and where he could leave the truck. A truck that he went to the 11th of July, but had booked on 4, ten days before the tragedy.

Over two hundred investigators from the judicial police are mobilized in all cases on this investigation. Meanwhile, it provides a large gathering of people for the minute of silence held in the Albert 1st Gardens, which borders the Promenade des Anglais. “ Exceptional security measures will be taken ” repeated yesterday Christian Estrosi, President Region.
