A teenager, his stepfather and a third man were indicted on Tuesday evening for murder and imprisoned after the discovery on Sunday in Kassel (North) of the body of a homeless man killed with 22 stab wounds, a-t – we learned Wednesday from the prosecution. In this case, “the motive remains very vague” but seems “quite futile”, against the background of alcohol consumption, according to the deputy prosecutor Alexia Gonnet.
The victim had a disability
Aged 29, the victim, of no fixed address, had a disability, but the status of vulnerable person was not retained at the stage of the indictments, said Ms. Gonnet.
Among the elements mentioned by the protagonists of this file, the insults that this man allegedly uttered against the minor’s sister and the fact that he was wearing a jacket belonging to the latter. “They are currently not really able to explain the acting out, even if they have recognized some of the facts,” explained the magistrate.
22 stab wounds
The victim’s body had been discovered on an isolated road in Cassel. The autopsy revealed 22 stab wounds. In addition to the teenager and his stepfather, a third man was indicted. Homeless like the victim, he was occasionally hosted by the teenager’s mother, said Ms. Gonnet.
