By MonacoViews Editorial, MonacoViews Editorial
A 27-year-old Monégasque woman gave evidence on the second day of the attempted murder trial of Jean-Charles Mulini, describing how he targeted her heart repeatedly during the April 2022 attack.
On the second day of proceedings at the Monaco criminal court, the victim at the centre of the Jean-Charles Mulini attempted murder trial took the stand and described in detail the violence she suffered in April 2022. Mulini stands accused of repeatedly stabbing his former partner, a 27-year-old Monégasque woman, with blows directed at her heart. Those present noted the composure and resolve she showed throughout her testimony.
Family members and people close to the victim also appeared before the court, painting a picture of the psychological hold Mulini had over her in the period leading up to the attack. Their accounts formed a central part of the prosecution's effort to establish the context of coercive control that preceded the violence.
The trial is continuing before the Monaco tribunal, with further hearings expected before a verdict is reached.
