Defendant Romain Bouvier denies premeditation in former rugby player's death

During the hearing, Bouvier spoke at length, acknowledging his penchant for speaking and describing the night that led to the incident. He recounted meeting his friend Loïk Le Priol at a terrace in Mabillon after a night of heavy drinking. The prosecution alleges a premeditated attempt on Aramburu's life, but Bouvier maintains he never intended to kill. The case has progressed to a potential conviction for attempted murder after four and a half years of investigation.
