Nearly two weeks after the kidnapping of a 17-year-old teenager, in front of his high school in Beauvais, the prefect of Oise decided to reinforce the presence of the gendarmerie on the ground.

Corinne Orzechowski and the police fear reprisals, she explained to actu Oise.

Friday September 9, the high school student had been kidnapped and sequestered in a cellar, where he had been tortured.

His attackers attacked him because he lives in Méru, the “rival” town.

Seriously injured after being hit and slashed with a knife, the victim was prescribed twelve days of ITT.

Schools and stations monitored

A few days after the events, four suspects were indicted.

One of them was imprisoned while his three accomplices were released under judicial supervision, the prefecture said.

The reinforced gendarmerie system aims to ease tensions between the young people of the two cities.

Schools and stations in Méru and Beauvais benefit from increased surveillance.
