Four pieces of identification, all with different names: the traveler arrested at Montpellier station is placed in administrative detention

Le jeune homme de 29 ans a été contrôlé par les agents de la SNCF, qui ont alerté la police. Midi Libre – RICHARD DE HULLESSEN

This 29-year-old Tunisian had been checked by SNCF agents. He was traveling without a ticket. As an identity document, he first presented a fake Italian driving license.

No fewer than four identity documents, all with different names: these are the documents that this Tunisian national presented to the police at Montpellier-Saint-Roch station on Monday, July 29.

The police were alerted by SNCF agents, while the 29-year-old man, who was traveling without a ticket, had first justified his identity with a crude fake Italian driving license.

Student card, card d’apprenti…

In his bag, the man was in possession of three other documents, without a photo: Gard transport card, student card and apprentice card. All falsified. He was also carrying a knife.

The Tunisian said he was married to a young pregnant woman from Nîmes, without being able to give his name or address. So many fanciful statements that led the individual to an administrative detention center in Marseille.
