According to someone close to the case, these investigations are being carried out in order to verify that no body is present in the Vernet sector, and in particular in the hamlet of Haut-Vernet.

Émile, two and a half years old, disappeared on July 8 in this village in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, without leaving a trace. Last week, the Digne-les-Bais prosecutor opened a judicial investigation into the “complexity of the case”.
