A man, already convicted of domestic violence and suspected of an attempted murder of his partner in Libourne, was indicted and imprisoned on Saturday, announced the Bordeaux prosecutor's office.

The suspect “could present psychiatric disorders”

The police arrested the companion on the spot, who was in the process of performing a pressure point on the victim's chest.

The couple's 5-year-old child, who was also at home, was taken care of.

The suspect, originally from Guadeloupe, “could present psychiatric disorders”, which are “being evaluated” and has already been “convicted twice for domestic violence”, indicated the prosecution on Friday.

He had resumed living together with his ex-girlfriend a few weeks ago

After a first conviction in 2017, the Libourne Criminal Court pronounced in December 2020 against him a sentence of eight months' imprisonment, including four months suspended on probation, including in particular a ban on appearing at the marital home and entering into a relationship. with the victim.

According to the first elements of the investigation, he “would have resumed living together with his ex-companion for several weeks by settling again at his home,” said the prosecution.
