“I was really going crazy.” Zahia Dehar gave her testimony on Saturday September 30 on the domestic violence she suffered at the hands of her former partner. On the set of “What a time!” on France 2, the actress detailed the process that pushed her to a suicide attempt. “That happened little by little. We don’t understand what’s happening to us. Little by little, I drifted towards madness”she said.

Today, Zahia Dehar is separated from this former companion, who lives in London (United Kingdom) and who denies the violence denounced by the 31-year-old young woman. “He belittled me, I had lost all self-confidence. (…) Above all, he stole my phone and deleted all the conversations and exchanges we had and which could prove that he was a manipulator. He was spying and hacked [piraté] my phone”she assures.

“It will be your word against his”

This bullying created a nervous and emotional instability in her which greatly destabilized her, explains the actress. “I was even afraid to go buy fruit, I cried. I felt like I was ugly, I hid. Suddenly, in the street, I sat on the ground, I screamed and I cried”she recalls, evoking the “mutilations” that she inflicted on herself at the time of this relationship.

Asked about the reasons which pushed her not to file a complaint against her attacker, Zahia Dehar replied that the police in some way discouraged her from pursuing him: “You know what I was told? ‘It’ll be your word against his and you don’t have much proof because it’s emotional abuse'”says the 31-year-old actress, who will no longer be able to “Never” trust a man.
