Arrest of Suspected Serial Killer in France Sparks Outrage Over Immigration Policies

French authorities have apprehended a suspected serial killer at a train station in Toulon, following an attempted assault on a woman aboard a train. The man’s description closely aligns with that of the primary suspect in the recent killing of a homeless man in Lyon, who was murdered after being struck by bricks thrown at his head. Toulon police identified the man by his striking resemblance to the Lyon attacker, right down to the orange shoelaces he was seen wearing. Images of the alleged Lyon assailant, captured by surveillance cameras, had circulated widely on social media since early in the week, helping the public and authorities in their search.

The individual in custody is also believed to be linked to a disturbing series of attempted murders spanning multiple locations, including Évry, Strasbourg, and Dijon in France, as well as Rotterdam in the Netherlands, where another homeless man was attacked with a concrete slab. While questioned by police, the suspect reportedly identified himself as a 37-year-old national of Cameroon. Despite having no prior criminal record, he was under a deportation order due to his undocumented status in France.

 

This arrest has ignited a fierce debate across the country regarding France’s immigration policies and the enforcement of deportation orders, known as "Obligations de Quitter le Territoire Français" (OQTF). Commenting on the situation, politician Marion Maréchal voiced her frustration on social media, writing, “The French are discovering with horror that the serial killer of homeless people, accused of 5 murders, is in fact an illegal Cameroonian under OQTF and that he was able to enter, leave and return freely to France without the slightest border control. Our lax migratory approach is criminal.”

 

The case has led to comparisons with other recent tragedies involving individuals who, despite having deportation orders, remained in the country. Many see these crimes as avoidable and view this situation as evidence of flaws in the current immigration system.
