Mohamed Mehdi Kessaci, 20, was killed last Thursday in Marseille. His brother, Amine Kessaci, an environmental activist committed to fighting drug trafficking, has been placed under police protection in recent weeks.
“The victim was not a target because he was a person who participated in drug trafficking and was not an additional victim.“, assures Laure Becuau. Therefore, researchers are studying her environmental hypothesis, “his brother who was known in the city of Marseille as his opponent“.
