The individual then raped her several times before fleeing. The victim, in shock, injured, managed to reach relatives who raised the alert.
The criminal brigade of the Departmental Security was able to find the suspect in record time, in particular thanks to the use of video surveillance images.
The individual, aged about thirty, was arrested late Tuesday morning on avenue Jean-Médecin and placed in police custody. He is suspected of having spotted his victim and of having followed her before taking action. He denies the facts and talks about a consensual relationship.
A judicial investigation for aggravated rape must be opened this Thursday evening. The investigating judge will continue the investigations and verify, in particular, whether the alleged rapist has not been active elsewhere.
The individual was imprisoned after a debate before the liberties and detention judge.
