Court Hears Chilling Details of Lola Daviet's Final Hours as CCTV Shows Killer Dragging Her Body
Lola Daviet Torture Details Revealed in French Court

A French courtroom was plunged into silence as prosecutors revealed the unimaginable suffering endured by 12-year-old Lola Daviet in her final hours, with forensic experts detailing systematic torture before her brutal murder.

The Chilling Evidence

Jurors watched in horror as CCTV footage showed the prime suspect, 24-year-old Algerian national Dahbia B, dragging a trunk containing Lola's lifeless body through the streets of Paris. The visual evidence presented a stark contrast to the clinical descriptions of torture that had been detailed moments earlier.

Systematic Torture Revealed

Forensic pathologist Professor Pierre-Antoine Peyron delivered devastating testimony about the extent of Lola's injuries. "The victim suffered what can only be described as systematic torture," he stated. "Multiple wounds showed evidence of being inflicted while she was still alive, indicating prolonged suffering."

The court heard how Lola had been subjected to:

  • Multiple stab wounds and slash marks
  • Severe blunt force trauma
  • Restraint injuries indicating she was bound
  • Other injuries too graphic to detail publicly

The Fateful Day

The tragedy unfolded on October 14, 2022, when Lola failed to return home from school in the 19th arrondissement of Paris. Her disappearance triggered a massive search operation, but the discovery came too late.

Prosecutors described how Dahbia B, who lived in the same building as Lola's family, lured the child to her apartment under false pretences before subjecting her to hours of torture.

The Aftermath

The accused woman, who arrived in France illegally in 2016, showed little emotion as the evidence was presented. Her legal team has entered a plea of not guilty, though prosecutors point to overwhelming physical evidence and CCTV footage linking her to the crime.

Lola's family sat through the proceedings with visible anguish, hearing for the first time the full extent of their daughter's suffering in what has become one of France's most shocking child murder cases in recent memory.

The trial continues as prosecutors seek to establish motive and build their case for a murder conviction that could see Dahbia B face life imprisonment.
