This 66-year-old man will answer questions from journalist François Vignolles. In a first extract posted online in the morning, we see him alongside his wife, telling the conditions of his arrest. He had been confused with Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès, the man suspected of having killed his wife and their four children in Nantes in 2011 and whose whereabouts are unknown.
"When I was told that I was a criminal, a murderer, I said," Okay, no problem, I never killed anyone. " So two police take me, put the handcuffs on me and put me in the back of a small police van, in the back like the dogs! We are in science fiction, it's unimaginable! ", He relates.
Guy Joao was placed in police custody and placed in total solitary confinement for 26 hours, until his genetic fingerprints raised any suspicion.
"He tells us that he keeps a dull anger over his arrest"
The interview was filmed Monday and Tuesday in Dunoon (Scotland) and lasted 90 minutes in total. "Physically, compared to the photo which had been published at the time in the press, it is not any more the same man, it tells us that his nights are still made of insomnia", underlined the journalist of M6 which had increased contacts with Guy Joao to convince him to testify in front of the camera.
"He tipped over to the other side of the mirror at one point, without knowing why he was being called out, and he was very shot in the first days and weeks. He tries to step back, but he tells us that he keeps a dull anger over his arrest, a nightmare, ”adds François Vignolles.
