The trial concerned events going back to March 2016. A woman was attacked by two men at the P&R Bouillon.

One of the defendants violently stole her bag. As the victim defended herself, the defendants stabbed her in her left shoulder, her chest, and her neck before punching her in the face.

The court ruled to confirm the first ruling, which sentenced the first defendant to 12 years in prison (with six years suspended), and the second defendant to seven years.
