In front of the judges, Cédric Jubillar continues to proclaim his innocence

Cédric Jubillar, suspected of the murder of his wife Delphine, was questioned this Friday at the Toulouse courthouse by two investigating judges in charge of the case. He once again proclaimed his innocence.

At the end of this hearing, which lasted more than four hours, Cédric Jubillar’s lawyers affirmed that their client had “answered all the questions” asked by the magistrates. “He proclaims his innocence, his despair. He has no place in prison, nor in solitary confinement (…) he was questioned for four hours, he answered all questions with sincerity, ”said Alexandre Martin.

During this hearing, the questions put to him were “substantially similar to those asked at the stage of police custody,” added lawyer Jean-Baptiste Alary, who has been defending Cédric Jubillar for ten months. The charges against him have not been discussed, and will be the subject of a future hearing.

New request for release

The suspect’s lawyers continue to plead for the release of Cédric Jubillar, remanded in custody since June 18, deeming his imprisonment “abusive”. They consider that the file still does not contain any element justifying his detention. Unveiled this week, the results of the analysis of the water in the washing machine, which was running the night of Delphine Jubillar’s disappearance with a duvet inside, came to nothing. No trace of blood or urine was found in the machine, nor in the siphon of the bathroom sink in the couple’s home in Cagnac-les-Mines, in the Tarn.

Faced with what they consider a lack of evidence, the lawyers of the indicted also indicated that they would file a new request for release on Monday. The three previous ones, however, were all rejected by the courts.

This was the first interrogation of Cédric Jubillar, the main suspect in the disappearance of Delphine, a 33-year-old nurse, who has not given any sign of life since December 2020, but whose body has still not been found. A second hearing is scheduled for December 3.
