Chahinez Daoud was only 31 when she was brutally murdered by her ex-husband. But that tragedy did not begin on 4 May 2021. Her hell had begun five years earlier, when she met Mounir Boutaa in Algeria. The man was Algerian with French nationality and had gone to her country for a few days. They met, and for her it was the opportunity to live a free life.

She agreed to go to France with him. She wanted to offer her children a better future. But once she was settled in the French state, That promise became a cycle of control and violence.. According to a police source, The Figaro, Mounir wouldn't accept that she wanted to live like a French woman.. He wanted to impose a model of total submission on her, as he understood the role of women within his patriarchal and authoritarian vision.

I wanted to wear jeans.

Chahinez wanted to dress like any other woman in the country: jeans, a T-shirt, trainers. She wanted to work, go out, be independent. But he controlled her obsessively: He wouldn't let her go out alone, he would check her phone, and he forbade her from working., and even He threatened to destroy the legal papers of her eldest son., in order to keep her subjugated.

The relationship deteriorated rapidly, and with it Chahinez's emotional and physical well-being. Her friends began to notice clear signs of abuse: bruises, bumps and fearful behaviour. The neighbours heard screams. But she, like so many women trapped in a situation of violence, didn't explain everything. “She was very discreet. She only said it was complicated,” a young friend of hers would recall.

Complaints and state inaction

In 2020, Chahinez did not stay silent. She did not endure it in silence. She fought back. She reported her husband for «wanting an Algerian woman like Algeria.» And she did so knowing the risk she was running. But the system failed spectacularly.

The First complaint it arrived after a serious assault: Mounir had tried to strangle her. The case went to court, and he was Condemned to nine months in prison. But the judgment did not amount to any real break in the chain of custody: no enhanced protection, no systematic monitoring, no effective control measures.

Only two months before his assassination, Chahinez reported him again. This time, Mounir He assaulted her in the street, forced her into his vehicle and threatened her again.. Chahinez explained everything at the Mérignac police station. But fate had a new humiliation in store for her: The police officer who attended to her had himself been convicted of domestic violence..

The institutional response was so negligent that Five officers were subsequently sanctioned.. In fact, according to France 3 Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Chahinez's family has sued the State for “gross negligence.” in their responsibility to protect her.

Life imprisonment

Now justice has delivered its verdict. On Friday 28 March 2025, the Gironde Assizes Court convicted Mounir Boutaa a life imprisonment with a minimum term of 22 years. He was declared. guilty of premeditated murder. The decision comes after a tense trial, charged with emotion and pent-up anger, held in Bordeaux.

The court also heard the harrowing account of events: on the morning of 4 May 2021, Boutaa spent hours hidden inside a van in front of his ex-partner's house. When Chahinez came out, he… Shoot twice in the legs. Wounded and lying on the ground, she He doused her with flammable liquid and burnt her alive.. A neighbour tried to intervene, but Mounir pointed a gun at him. He then forced the victim's eldest son out of his home and set the house on fire.
