The man in question had been on a permanent contract with this company for twelve years. Overnight, he disappeared, no longer showing any signs of life. More surprisingly, he lives in the same region as the teenager, “very close” to her home, according to the testimony broadcast on M6. Fanny Groll, Lina’s mother, who participated in the program “Call for witnesses”, says she had never heard of this track before the program was broadcast. “It’s a lead that we will immediately give to the police, it’s still very strange that all of a sudden, at the same time, in the same place, there is someone who disappears”, s asks Julien Courbet, presenter of the show.
No preferred lead after eight months
The investigation did not appear to be progressing before this event. No lead has been favored or ruled out since the disappearance. It could be a kidnapping, given the testimonies of certain motorists who saw the young girl walking on the side of a road. Multiple searches launched by the police yielded nothing. According to her mother, the culprit(s) knew her daughter. On October 1, the Strasbourg public prosecutor’s office opened a judicial investigation for “kidnapping and sequestration”. A “complicated” mission, according to the public prosecutor. The prosecution then spoke of “long-term investigations”, emphasizing that “no charges had been brought against anyone”, after many days of hearings.
