A man in his twenties has been charged and placed in pre-trial detention after a man died from a stabbing in Stains, near Paris. The killing happened during a birthday celebration in the night of 6 to 7 November, with the victim, born in 1998, receiving a stab wound to the side around 05:30 on Saturday. Despite attempts to resuscitate, the death was pronounced just after 7:00, according to a police source. Investigators say several people were taken into police custody earlier as the inquiry progressed. The prosecution later said one man, in his twenties, was due to be brought before an investigating judge for murder committed while the offender was in a state of obvious drunkenness, following a charge under the public prosecutor’s office in Bobigny. The prosecution also said the stabbing occurred during an altercation. As requested by the prosecutor, the suspect was formally charged (put in examination) and remanded in custody. The judicial investigation is ongoing, with the suspect currently held as the case moves forward through the instruction process.
