Hijacked, the helicopter pilot pulled out Redoine Faïd from prison with "two Colt on his head"

" I have the impression that this morning, the stress is much stronger than yesterday and before- yesterday ", said Stéphane Buy on RTL, three days after the spectacular escape of Redoine Faïd from the prison of Réau in Seine-et-Marne.

Sunday at 09H30, two men who had booked a flight arrive on the aerodrome of Lognes. Mr. Buy knew them because they "had made a flight before and that had gone very well, on a baptism."

They demand to fly on the Alouette II and not on a model other than Mr. Buy think more suitable for fuel issues. The tone goes up and "they attack me. They condemn me to take this machine (…). They forced me and warned that my family is in danger. "

Shortly after takeoff, they force him to land in a field. There, "they shoot me and give me some butts and explain to me what we are going to do with their choice to go and get a friend from the prison in Réau."

                    

                

Stéphane Buy does not oppose any resistance: "I did not have the choice with two Colts on my head."

The helicopter leaves and lands again in a field where rise "other individuals" but the craft refuses to restart.

"That's where it was the nightmare (…). They may have thought that I was simulating a false failure. I have been hit with more and more sticks, so much so that Stéphane Buy falls unconscious and is relieved by the perpetrators.

The turbine starts again and the helicopter goes to the prison . He landed in a courtyard and Redoine Faïd embarked.

M. Buy says he did not identify the robber who "was really silent."

Once in the air, the commando ordered the pilot to head for Roissy. It arose a few minutes later, "near a Total station, it was at the edge of a fast lane."

The operation ended, the team "tries to set the cabin on fire" the vehicle then fleeing by car.

According to the investigators, they leave their car in the parking lot of the O'Parinor shopping center of Aulnay-sous-Bois (Seine-Saint-Denis), for another vehicle which was subsequently burned in the Oise.

A hundred specialized police officers of the PJ are mobilized to find Redoine Faïd. Wednesday, the most wanted man in France, was still on the run
