The aunt of the girl evokes a "Christmas nightmare"
"It's terrible not to know if she's alive." The aunt of little Maëlys, missing in Pont-de-Beauvoisin on August 27, told LCI this Wednesday about the nightmare that she and her family have been living for four months.
Séverine, aunt of little Maëly who disappeared in the night from 26 to 27 August at a wedding party in Pont-de-Beauvoisin (Isère), delivered her testimony to LCI this Wednesday, a few hours before the march "for the truth" organized in tribute to the girl.
She spoke for the first time, choosing to return where, on November 5, was held a symbolic balloon release for the anniversary of the 9 years of Maëlys.
"It was the first Christmas without Maëlys and ... It's hard. It's really hard," she breathes on the verge of tears.
"After the wedding nightmare, it's our Christmas nightmare. We have the feeling that our life has been a nightmare for four months. And that does not stop," she continues.
Séverine is saddened by repeated denials, since the beginning of the investigation, of Nordahl Lelandais, the main suspect in this affair.
"Only he can answer our questions in fact. Only he has certain answers, and as long as he does not give them to us, we do not move forward. "
The former 34-year-old dog handler was indicted on November 30 for murder in this case. He was also indicted as part of the investigation into the disappearance of a 23-year-old soldier, Corporal Arthur Noyer, last April in Savoy.
The uncertainty about what happened to Maëlys is particularly cruel, says Séverine. "It is terrible not to know if she is alive, if she is no longer of this world and what has been done to her, where is she? What might still being done to her ... We do not know. "
