In the afternoon, BOID agents in search of the perpetrators of the murder of their colleague conducted a very muscular operation in Lilavois which continued until late in the evening, during which many abuses, violence, intimidation and destruction of property against the population have been reported including the burning of more than 10 houses...

On Friday, Mayor Rony Colin of the Croix-des-Bouquets met with the families whose houses were set on fire during the BOID operation before visiting the family of the police officers murdered the day before to express his sympathies to the grieving family.

Mayor Colin asked the police and judicial authorities of the Commune to carry out an investigation in order to shed light on the assassination so that their perpetrators could be brought before the competent courts as well as on the acts that would have occurred on Thursday during the intervention of the BOID.
