More than two months after the disappearance of Marwan Berreni, a body was found in a house in Beaujolais, in the Rhône, franceinfo learned Thursday from the Villefranche-sur-Saône public prosecutor’s office, confirming information from the Parisian.

This body was discovered Thursday in an uninhabited building in Corselles-en-Beaujolais (Rhône), between Mâcon and Villefranche-sur-Saône, a few kilometers from Fleurie, the place where Marwan Berreni’s car was found, according to a source close to the file. For the moment, the identity of the body found has not yet been established. DNA expertise must be carried out to identify the body, indicates the prosecution.

The actor has not given any sign of life since the beginning of August

The actor, made famous by the television series “Plus belle la vie”, who was to appear in the new season of the series in early 2024 on the TF1 channel, has not given any sign of life since the beginning of August. The actor is suspected of having hit a 37-year-old woman by car on August 3, shortly after 11 p.m. in Mâcon. The driver then fled after hitting this woman, who was prescribed a 28-day ITT, with fourteen fractures.

On August 5, 2023, a vehicle likely to correspond to the vehicle involved in the accident was discovered in the town of Fleurie (Rhône), the Mâcon public prosecutor’s office indicated on September 18. According to a source close to the investigation, Marwan Berreni’s papers were discovered in this 4×4, which showed signs of impact on the front of the hood. The actor had also already been fined while driving this car for lack of insurance.
