Aurélie Vaquier affair: Samire Lymani will be decided on his fate Tuesday evening

#HERAULT.  Tried in Montpellier before the Hérault assizes since January 9, for the murder of ;rsquo;Aurélie Vaquier whom he contests, Samire Lymani, 41 years old, will be decided on his fate. The debates resume this Monday with the IT expert who examined all the telephone relationships of the protagonists, a crucial point in the case.

Then Lymani, who has not yet been heard on the merits, will be able to explain the numerous charges weighing on him. He denies having killed his partner, at the end of January 2021, before burying her in their house in Bédarieux, the body being found on April 7, 2021 under a concrete slab hidden under a platform. The verdict is expected Tuesday evening.

Today's figure: 130,000

#SOLIDARITE. In euros, this is the amount raised by the M6 ​​show of Aveyron pastry chef Cyril Lignac “All in the kitchen”, for the benefit of Restos du coeur during its entire broadcast. Remember that on November 25, 2023, “All in the kitchen” had stopped at the Place de la Cité in Rodez, with the accomplice of the Aveyron chef, Jérôme Anthony. The funds will be used in particular to purchase basic necessities for babies.

SPA: two employees denounce harassment

#MONTPELLIER. Two years after the conflict between director Annie Bénézech and president Françoise Leost, which ended with the departure of the second, the SPA association enters a new zone of turbulence. Acts of moral harassment are reported to the courts by employees. The association's communications officer filed a complaint in September 2021 for acts of harassment and defamation. The industrial tribunal will examine this matter on March 27.

Another procedure was initiated by an animal helper, hired on a permanent contract since March 2016 who saw her situation suddenly deteriorate in October 2023. Dismissed for “serious misconduct”, the employee will request reinstatement in February in court. For her part, the director of the SPA believes that “it is not worth communicating on this, because there is no file. We are here to defend animals, not two personal interests."

Bus network on strike this Monday

#NIMES.This Monday, a new strike will impact the urban lines of the Tango public transport network with disruptions expected until Friday. The employees ask the Agglo to sign a social pact and estimate that "since 2015, more than a million kilometers in operation have been lost, subcontracting has increased significantly and the number of employees went from 450 to 360." The social movement is set to harden unless there is a meeting, very improbable today, between the representatives of the Agglo and those of employees.

Still not enough rain

#BITTEROIS. Water is sorely lacking. Resources are at their lowest, creating a particularly critical situation. The episode of rain and snow on January 10 and 11 did not allow the situation to improve. The prefecture still maintains the territory in a crisis situation. Because the level of the water tables is abnormally low. The director of the EPTB (territorial public basin establishment) assures that it would be necessary that by spring, it rains four to five times what it rained, i.e. four to five times 80 mm of cumulative water to return to a normal rainfall situation." And the forecasts are not good. "The weather does not predict three-quarters of the rain that I hope for", regrets Laurent Ripert.
