Leslie Hoorelbeke, 22, and Kevin Trompat, 21, had not seen each other since the early hours of November 26 in Prahecq, a town of 2,000 inhabitants near Niort.

The couple spent the night at a friend’s house, the last to see them. They went to sleep in Prahecq, in a house lent by another friend, who doesn’t live there.

Leslie’s relatives don’t believe what happened. “Kidnapping has been our belief from the beginning”, they say. “There has to be a purpose to that, and other than the money, we don’t really see that.”

Karine Prat said her son-in-law had “10,000 euros” with him. She herself had brought him money – the amount varied – on the night of the events in Prahecq, according to her knowledge, to buy a car.
