“How do we get to give the first blow?” The president of the 14 e chamber of the Paris court details each slap, each kick, each threat present in the file that She has to judge on Wednesday 1 ^er June, trying not to deviate from it. Faced with her, five men aged 25 to 32 appear for having passed tobacco and humiliated the former leader of an ultraviolet far right group, the Union Defense group (GUD), one night in October 2015. The end of his filmed ordeal, Edouard K. appears completely naked in a puddle, on the ground of his apartment.

“I had dysfunctional, sadistic, odious behavior”, summarizes Romain Bouvier. At his side, mask on the nose and head down, Loïk Le Priol also recognizes a “hallucinating collective hysteria”. The two men are the only five defendants to appear in the box. They are “detained for other cause”, as the president says: Bouvier in the health prison, the priol in isolation, in Meaux.

“A slightly special evening”

This “other cause” is more than hovering on the audience of the day. Because the two men were indicted less than three months ago for the assassination of the former Argentinian rugby international Federico Martin Aramburu, shot dead on a sidewalk of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, on 19 March in the early morning. A shadow so present that the lawyer for Loïk Le Priol, Xavier Nogueras, tries to get the camera. Failed, the president is already starting to dissect this evening in October 2015, which brings them together again today.

“It was a somewhat special evening with a lot of alcohol, a group effect and dotted memories,” says Loïk Le Priol, who has to have shots, filmed the scene and released his knife “to threaten “.

What had they come to do all five to the former GUD chief, on the night of October 8 to 9, 2015? Having a simple “discussion”, assures the Priol: it was a question of “confronting” their former boss with violence that he would have committed on two of their friends, successively as a couple with him, or to words that he would have held against another. “That we are not trying to discard false pretexts to legitimize the humiliation and the physical attacks that have been subjected to,” annoys the victim’s lawyer, M ^e Léon-lef Forster, in the absence of his client: “The villain, it would be him, and he would have deserved it?”

Logan Djian – his successor at the head of the GUD – advances another explanation: Edouard K. described him as “balance”, then came to him for a “update”. “We had each of the things to blame him,” continues the nickname “Duce”.
