Two days after the death of a young man in Grande-Synthe, in the North, the circumstances of the tragedy are becoming clearer. While two minor suspects are in police custody, The Parisian reveals that the latter lured their victim into an ambush via an online chat site.
It was through the site “coco.gg” that Philippe’s attackers were able to lure him in the middle of the night to the deserted parking lot of a supermarket in the town of Grande-Synthe. On this discussion site, which allows you to create an account in a few clicks without any other formality, the suspects posed as a young girl looking for a romantic relationship with their victim.
A desire to “punish”
Still according to our colleagues, the hypothesis of several attacks attributable to these individuals using the same modus operandi seems to be confirmed. In particular that which occurred against a 39-year-old man two days before the tragedy.
On the other hand, the villainous motive could be compromised by the revelations of the suspects in police custody. Without this having been confirmed by the Dunkirk public prosecutor’s office, the defendants would have intended to punish the men who responded to requests for meetings with their false profile as a young girl. The “coco.gg” site in question is also very controversial, regularly cited in cases of extortion, narcotics, punitive expeditions, child abuse or scams. This was particularly the case with the sordid affair of Dominique P., the man who recruited men via this site to rape his drugged wife.
