The advice of Cédric Jubillar, the husband of the Tarn nurse who has been missing for more than 10 months, must file a new request for release on Monday.
Cédric Jubillar’s lawyers will file, this Monday, October 18, a new request for the release of their client, the second since his placement in pre-trial detention on June 18. The husband of Delphine Jubillar, a Tarn nurse who has been missing since December 16, 2020, has also been in solitary confinement for 4 months. A measure that his counsel dispute, believing that the elements brandished by the prosecution are too weak to justify his imprisonment.
Friday, at the end of the hearing of Cédric Jubillar by the two investigating judges in charge of the case, his lawyers had denounced “an abusive incarceration”, claiming that “[sa] detention becomes unbearable”. Asked by the magistrates about his relationship with Delphine, her husband “answered all the questions” according to Me Alexandre Martin. “No new element has emerged, continued the lawyer. The defense can only consider that justice is manifestly unable to put forward elements which would make it possible to establish that Cédric Jubillar is guilty of the facts with which he is accused.
In the event of a new rejection, his lawyers will appeal
In the process, he indicated his intention to file a new request for release on Monday, the second after that which had been filed at the end of August. This request had been rejected at the beginning of September by the judge of freedoms and detention, decision confirmed on appeal three weeks later. If the second request was again rejected, Cédric Jubillar’s lawyers have already planned to appeal the decision again.
Their client must be heard a second time by the examining magistrates, in mid-December, this time on the facts. In the meantime, on the ground, the investigators continue their research.
