Thursday February 2, 2023, Cyril Hanouna presented a new number of Touche not at my post, on C8. On the set, Michel Mary, senior reporter for the New Detective, spoke about the murder of Sihem and gave information on the main suspect.
A moving story… A week after his disappearance, the lifeless body of Sihem was found in a forest in the Gard, in La Grand-Combe, Thursday February 2, 2023. According to the Parisian, the husband of the cousin of the teenager would have confessed in the middle of the night. On the set of Touche not at my post, on C8, Michel Mary, great reporter for the New Detective, made revelations about the main suspect, who had already been convicted 13 times in 14 years. “It turns out that Mafhoud and the cousin are separating, they are divorcing, they have two children and Sihem is incidentally, beyond her studies, the couple’s babysitter“, he recalled at first.
On the set, Michel Mary said: “He was convicted 13 times, there are eight cases which are traffic offenses and the other five are violence, aggravated robbery, armed robbery and the last case was a salami. But it dates back to 2011, he had not been tried. He had kidnapped a couple in a home. They are owners of a tobacco shop. He had forced the husband to come back at gunpoint, knowing that his wife was kidnapped, to make the cash and so on.The tall reporter added:He’s a thug, clearly! He is unknown in sex cases and he is also, until proven otherwise in any case, he has never had a problem in narcotics cases.“
