Father of Dax Teen Killed During PSG Celebrations Breaks Silence a Year Later

His testimony, read as his son's voice, presses for tougher criminal penalties with a white march planned for June 6.

Overview

  • Seventeen-year-old Benoît was fatally stabbed in Dax during PSG victory celebrations on May 31, 2025, and his father spoke publicly for the first time about the killing one year later.
  • On Europe 1 the father recounted his version of events, saying the confrontation began after the theft of his son’s cap and describing multiple stab wounds inflicted by an unnamed attacker.
  • He alleged the presence of accomplices, including minors, in provoking the fight and said the family has received psychological support while living with ongoing anger and pain.
  • The father outlined sweeping justice reforms he wants, including effective life terms without early release, tougher measures for juvenile offenders and more resources for police and courts.
  • He announced a white march and the installation of a commemorative plaque for June 6, and the statements are likely to fuel wider public debate even though the articles do not report new arrests or court decisions.
