In late January, a 28-year-old woman was found strangled to death in her apartment in Paris. Her partner, a police officer who had previously been convicted on domestic abuse charges, the main suspect in the murder, has still not been found. While the search continues, many women’s rights groups are calling out a broken system. FRANCE 24 investigates what happens when a police officer is charged with domestic abuse.
On January 28, a young woman was found dead in the Paris apartment she shared with a 29-year-old police officer called Arnaud B., who had not reported for duty that day at the Blanc-Mesnil police station where he is posted. Fifeen days later, he has yet to be found by local authorities.
