The public prosecutor of Toulouse, Franck Rastoul, said on Friday January 12 that he had requested additional information in the case of the disappearance of Delphine Jubillar, confirming information from the daily La Dépêche du Midi. While Cédric Jubillar was referred to court for the murder of his wife, a telephone exchange on the case raises questions, franceinfo learned from a source close to the case.

In this telephone conversation, which was listened to by the prison administration, between an inmate of the central prison of Lannemezan (Hautes-Pyrénées) convicted of attempted murder and his mother, the Jubillar affair is mentioned for a few moments. The first names of three people, including two potentially cited in the file, are mentioned in particular. According to our information, the detainee explains: “There’s still no proof.” The mother, in a light tone, replies: “Ah, if they knew…”, followed by laughter. The detainee continues: “There you go, Sébastien, and Mathieu, and Sofiane, they don’t know them.”

No “deficiency in the instruction”, according to the attorney general

Without confirming this conversation, Franck Rastoul specified that a “additional information is procedurally required from the moment the investigating judges are removed from the case due to the indictment order”referring Cédric Jubillar to the Tarn Assize Court. “The checks which must be carried out can now only be carried out within the framework of this additional information”he added. “This is therefore in no way the expression of a deficiency in the instruction, it is a procedural obligation at this stage.”

“This additional information requested by the public prosecutor’s office is proof that there are still questions that arise in this file,” estimates Jean-Baptiste Alary, one of Cédric Jubillar’s lawyers, contacted by franceinfo. “All the hypotheses have clearly not been exploited. And perhaps everything has not yet been done”he judges.

The requisitions of the general prosecutor’s office requesting additional information must be examined on January 18, at the same time as the appeal against the order of indictment of Cédric Jubillar filed by his lawyers, before the investigating chamber of the Toulouse Court of Appeal. In this case without a body, no confession, no witness, no crime scene, the plasterboard painter, now aged 36 and incarcerated since June 2021, denies any responsibility. Delphine Jubillar disappeared on the night of December 15 to 16, 2020.
