Interpol Issues Global Notice for 18-Year-Old Algerian in Saint-Étienne Murder Investigation

The individual is sought for questioning after a nightclub employee was found strangled in his home on February 9, 2025.

Sid Ahmed Berrayeh, 18, is the subject of an Interpol red notice in connection to the murder of a 25-year-old nightclub employee in Saint-Étienne, France.
The victim, found dead in his apartment by a family member, had died from strangulation, which caused respiratory failure.
Investigators discovered cannabis and cocaine residues in the victim's apartment, prompting inquiries into potential drug-related motives.
Authorities emphasize that the red notice seeks to locate and provisionally arrest Berrayeh for questioning, not as confirmation of his guilt.
The victim's belongings, including keys and a phone, were missing from the scene, adding complexity to the investigation.
