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).

Bas-Rhin. La DZ Mafia impliquée dans un enlèvement à Strasbourg
|
||
|
||
Deux membres présumés de la DZ Mafia, âgés de 22 et 19 ans, sont impliqués dans une affaire d’enlèvement et de séquestration à Strasbourg. Venus spécialement de Marseille pour faire leurs preuves et intégrer les rangs de la mafia phocéenne , ils ont ciblé une jeune femme de 25 ans pour ses fréquentations, notamment un proche vivant à Dubaï qui a fait fortune dans la cryptomonnaie.
|
||
|
||
Selon nos informations, l’un des suspects s’est présenté à son domicile en tant que livreur. La victime, qui attendait un colis, est allée lui ouvrir. Aussitôt, les deux hommes l’ont attrapée et mise à l’arrière d’une camionnette, prenant soin de la ligoter et de la bâillonner. L’objectif ? Faire chanter son ami fortuné. Sauf qu’un témoin, qui a assisté à la scène, a eu le réflexe de relever le numéro d’immatriculation du véhicule et de prévenir la police.
|
||
|
||
Ligotée dans une camionnette en forêt du Neuhof
|
||
|
||
Grâce à sa vigilance, la jeune femme a pu être retrouvée saine et sauve. Les enquêteurs l’ont découverte ligotée dans une camionnette dans la forêt du Neuhof.
|
||
|
||
Les suspects, qui ont ensuite été arrêtés, réclamaient 600 000 euros à l’ami de la jeune femme et menaçaient de lui couper un doigt.
|
||
|
||
À l’issue de leur garde à vue, les deux hommes ont été transférés à la JIRS de Nancy. Contactée, la juridiction nancéenne a refusé de se prononcer quant aux liens présumés des deux hommes avec la DZ mafia. En revanche, elle indique qu’ils ont été mis en examen pour enlèvement, séquestration et menaces de mort, association de malfaiteurs en vue de la préparation d’un crime en bande organisée, et tentative d’extorsion en bande organisée. Ils ont été placés en détention provisoire.
