LOIK LE PRIOL. The main suspect in the murder of former rugby player Federico Martin Aramburu was arrested on Wednesday March 23, 2022 in Hungary. His companion, suspected of complicity, is in prison. She gave details of what happened.
Loïk Le Priol’s run will therefore have lasted five days. The main suspect in the murder of former rugby player Federico Martin Aramburu was arrested overnight from Tuesday to Wednesday, the Paris prosecutor’s office announced on Wednesday March 23, 2022. But the arrest took place far from Paris where the tragedy occurred on Saturday March 19, in the early morning. It is indeed in Hungary that the 27-year-old man was apprehended. According to BFM TV, his arrest took place during a check at a border. He wanted, according to the continuous news channel, to go to Ukraine. This supporter of the ultra-right, who would have opened fire on the victim, should be sent back to France shortly: a warrant should indeed be issued soon. For the investigators, this arrest should make it possible to clarify the circumstances of the murder which took place in the heart of the capital.
A suspect still at large
However, the folder is not empty. Tuesday, March 22, a woman, suspected of complicity, was also arrested in Paris, indicted and placed in detention. During her hearing, Lison, presented as the companion of Loïk Le Priol, has already given some information on the course of events. Initially, a dispute between two alcoholic groups at “Mabillon”, a brasserie located on Boulevard Saint-Germain, in the center of the capital, open until early morning. According to the first elements, comments from Loïk Le Priol’s group to other customers, who asked for a cigarette, did not please a third group, that of Federico Martin Aramburu. The tone would then have risen but the explanations would have turned short due to the rapid intervention of a security guard from the establishment. At the exit, the 24-year-old would then search for the car, a Jeep, according to the story reported by The Parisian. But she is alone. On the way, she finds another man who was accompanying them, a certain Romain B.
The latter would have boarded the vehicle before ordering the driver to stop in front of the address he had just left. Federico Martin Aramburu and a friend, Shawn Hegarty, are still there. Romain B. then shoots the first named, joined at the same time by Loïk Le Priol, who also fired, according to the daily. Four bullets are fired, then the trio decamps before ending up in Paris a little later. the Parisian indicates that Lison would have dropped off the two friends in the 15th arrondissement, avenue Wilson. The run then began, ending in Hungary for Loïk Le Priol, while Romain B. is still wanted. As for the driver of the Jeep, she tried to clear herself: “I told the boys to leave. I didn’t want it to happen like that. I acted by instinct and by love.”
