flag A 27-year-old Algerian woman, Dahbia Benkired, is on trial in Paris for the 2022 rape, torture, and murder of 12-year-old Lola Daviet, whose body was found in a trunk in the building lobby where her parents worked. flag Surveillance footage shows Benkired leading Lola into her sister’s apartment after school. flag Prosecutors allege she used scissors and a box cutter, bound the girl with duct tape—including over her face—causing asphyxiation. flag Benkired, who had overstayed her visa and clashed with Lola’s mother, was seen carrying luggage and told a cafe worker she was “selling a kidney.” She fled after police arrived but was arrested the next day. flag The trial, which began October 17, 2025, continues, with a potential life sentence if convicted. flag The victim’s family attended, and the case has sparked national debate on child safety and immigration, though the victim’s mother urged against politicizing the tragedy.
