Additional investigations linked to the disappearance of Delphine Jubillar on December 15, 2020 will be able to resume their course. The Court of Cassation rejected the appeal filed by Cédric Jubillar, the victim’s husband, implicated, in an order of March 25, according to information from Parisian. Thus the additional information ordered by the Toulouse Court of Appeal on February 8 will be able to be applied.
This final phase of the investigation was suspended by his appeal to the Court of Cassation. It targeted the additional information carried out by the same investigating judges as those who decided to refer Cédric Jubillar to the Tarn Assize Court, after three years of investigation.
Multiple requests for release
The indictment order which concluded that “all the elements collected during the judicial investigation demonstrate that Cédric Jubillar is the author of the murder of his wife, that he is the last to have seen her alive” was considered by the defense as an attack on the presumption of innocence. The Court of Cassation did not accept this argument.
Cédric Jubillar, indicted since June 18, 2021 for “murder by spouse”, is still in pre-trial detention at the Toulouse-Seysses remand center despite multiple requests for release filed by his lawyers. He still denies having played a role in the disappearance of his partner.
