Neither the mother of Lina, a 15-year-old teenager who has been missing in Bas-Rhin since September 23, nor her lawyer Maître Matthieu Airoldi, wish to elaborate on a complaint filed against a YouTuber for “defamation “. A complaint however confirmed to 20 minutes by the lawyer this Thursday after a revelation of BFM Alsace. The YouTuber notably suggested, in a video published on the Internet at the end of September, that there was an affair between Lina’s mother and the teenager’s boyfriend, Tao.
Many rumors circulated on social networks the day after the disappearance. Faced with these, the teenager’s mother had called, through her lawyer Maître Airoldi of the Strasbourg bar, “not to relay unverified information, to let the investigation take its course and to not give credence to statements made by anyone other than one’s lawyer.”
Many rumors on the web
As a reminder, Lina, a teenager with no history attending CAP “personal assistance”, disappeared in Bas-Rhin on Saturday September 23, late in the morning. She was walking to the Saint-Blaise-la-Roche station, three kilometers from home, a journey she was used to making, to take the train and join her boyfriend Tao in Strasbourg.
The Strasbourg public prosecutor’s office, where the case is being investigated, opened a judicial investigation “against X” at the beginning of October for “kidnapping and sequestration not followed by voluntary release for more than seven days”. The public prosecutor, Yolande Renzi, then said she expected “long-term” investigations, adding that no avenue was “discarded or favored”.
