Until now only cases 357+ (plus a few older ones) had their linked URLs fetched; the other 252 dossiers held just the text pasted into the spreadsheet, often only the lede. This pass fetches every linked URL for those cases so the full text is on file before link rot takes it. - stage_all.py: new --include-sheet-cases flag that lifts the skip on cases holding spreadsheet articles. Resumable as before. - staging/: raw extracts and index.json for the 252 cases. - sourced-articles.json, case-files-manifest.json: 188 new UNTRIMMED blocks. 179 cases gained at least one fetched article; 73 got none (49 BLOCKED, 18 THIN, 9 DEAD, 4 video/social, 3 ERROR). - sources/*.txt: rebuilt with build_cases.py --all. Sheet pastes are kept; fetched blocks sit beside them under the NOT YET TRIMMED banner. Files previously committed with CRLF are now LF. - wayback-availability.json: Wayback snapshots exist for 73 of the 98 failed URL slots; input for an archive-fetch pass. - README-START-HERE.md: progress note and next step. verify_all.py PASSES (1836 checks).

The man was kidnapped Thursday morning. Since then, he was kidnapped by kidnappers who demanded a ransom in exchange for his release. According to sources consistent with the Parisian, confirming an information of Actu17, a fifties-year-old was released Saturday night in Palaiseau (Essonne) by the police and found with a severed finger. Four suspects were arrested and taken into custody.
|
||
The victim, the father of a French entrepreneur in the field of cryptocurrencies, head of a company based in Malta and France, was kidnapped Thursday around 10h30 in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, said the prosecutor. The criminals would have claimed between 5 to 7 million euros in the form of a transfer in exchange for his release. After telephone investigations, he was finally released during an operation coordinated by the BIS of the Paris judicial police with the BRB (Brigade de répression du banditisme) and the criminal brigade.

Video Kidnapping, torture, ransoms... crypto, new target of organized crime
|
||
According to our information, the accommodation where the victim was was being caulked, probably in order to make videos of the hostage’s staging. An investigation of the counts of arrest, kidnapping and arbitrary detention of hostages to obtain the execution of an order or a condition committed in an organized gang, extortion in organized gangs with weapon and participation in an association of criminal criminals was entrusted to the brigade for the repression of banditry and the judicial police.
