Olivier would have been 24 on January 31. It was on this day that his family launched a petition on the site change.org, to ask the town hall of Caen to secure the place where he would have fallen in the Orne, on July 11, before his body was found lifeless, five days later. They demand the installation of safety railings but also surveillance cameras.
“There are tables nearby where families often sit. There are also many young people who come here in the summer. But in the evening, there is absolutely no lighting, you can’t see anything. If for some reason someone still falls in the water, as the divers who responded to my brother’s disappearance explained to us themselves, there is very little chance of surviving place,” explains Émilie Louise, Olivier’s sister. “It’s true that I never go there again with my children because I find that these banks are not sufficiently secure”, abounds a signatory mother.
