Teen Suspect in Fatal Sidi Rahal Shooting Faces Further Investigation
Thursday 4 November 2021, by
The teenager who allegedly shot two people on Tuesday, November 2 in Sidi Rahal, was brought before the court the same day to answer the charges against him. But in order to better define the contours of this tragic affair, the public prosecutor’s office has requested additional investigation by the Royal Gendarmerie.
Two people were killed and three others were injured during this shooting. At the request of the public prosecutor’s office, the investigators should question the members of the alleged murderer’s family. At the top of the list, the father of the young man. He is the owner of the hunting rifle used by the 17-year-old adolescent who, according to the initial findings of the investigation, had taken his father’s rifle to go settle scores with some of his schoolmates.
But once on the scene, he is said to have started shooting blindly as if he wanted to destroy everything in his path. The local authorities indicated that he was in an "abnormal state".
