(European Conservative) On Friday, October 17, 2025, the highly anticipated trial of Dahbia Benkired begins in Paris. She is suspected of having kidnapped, tortured, raped and murdered 12-year-old Lola Daviet three years ago. The particularly heinous crime deeply shocked the French public due to its extreme violence and Benkired’s profile: an Algerian woman under an OQTF (obligation to leave French territory), whose motive remains unclear to this day.
The events took place on Friday, October 14th, 2022, in north-east Paris. On her way home from school, little Lola came across Dahbia Benkired, sitting near the entrance to the building where she lived. Benkired’s sister lived on the sixth floor of the same building.
The child was forcibly taken to the flat of Benkired’s sister, where her ordeal began.
