The investigation opened after the death of a thirty-something, on the night of Thursday to Friday in Aubenas (Ardèche), saw a clear advance on Saturday.

Suspected of having fatally stabbed her companion in the thorax during the New Year, a 46-year-old woman was indeed referred to the Avignon public prosecutor's office on Saturday, following the extension of her police custody.

According to

Le Dauphiné Libéré

, she was indicted by an examining magistrate in Avignon for intentional homicide of a spouse.

During his custody, the forty-something would have evoked an altercation before the fatal stab, against a background of excessive alcohol consumption.

L'Ardéchoise was placed in pre-trial detention, as demanded by the prosecution.
