The 21-year old passenger died from her injuries following a refusal by police to shoot the driver of the car in which she was riding on Saturday in Paris' 18th arrondissement. Paris decided to file a complaint both against the driver and against X, according to RTL/BFMTV.
According to Me Sylvie Noachovitch, "The driver stopped the passengers from getting out of the car." "He held Rayana and the passengers hostage.
These facts were discovered at the end the morning. Mountain bikers and police officers first saw "a car with four people, one of which was not wearing his seatbelt." The car accelerates rapidly as they approach it. The police report states that the driver began to accelerate again as officers tried to control him. "The officers then used their weapons on multiple occasions to seriously injure the driver and one passenger," and they were later taken to hospital.
The driver was not licensed and was taken into police custody for refusing to submit to the police check. This is part of an ongoing investigation, which includes "attempted murder on a public official" as well as "refusal of comply aggravated with endangering others."
The custody of the three officers who used the weapon, two men and 32 years old, and a woman aged 31 was also lifted 48 hours later to allow for "continuation in investigations". They are now being investigated by a judge.
