It seems as if it has vanished into thin air emile, the two-and-a-half-year-old boy who disappeared in the French village of Vernet in Haute Provence on Saturday afternoon, July 8? On the fifth day of unsuccessful searches in the area, investigators change strategy and call for the arrival of new funds. About fifty gendarmes search the last unexplored area of the disappearance area before declaring the search over. Meanwhile, the investigation continues: the bloodstains found on a car come from an animal, and other witnesses are being questioned. In fact, it turned out that the little boy was not alone in the garden of his grandparents’ house. But there must have been uncles, aunts and cousins with him who visited the mountains before he returned to the city. New economic resources are also being added thanks to the regional and national resources made available to investigators and rescuers on the scene following the creation of a national crisis unit by decision of the Digne-les-Bains public prosecutor.

France holding its breath over Emile’s disappearance Five days after his disappearance, little Emile, the two and a half year old boy who was last seen by two neighbors at 5.15pm on Saturday 8 July, has not been found in France, found alone in an alley near Vernet in the Alpes de Haute was department of Provence.
Digne-les-Bains prosecutor Rémy Avon reported that “nearly 1,200 complaints have been received,” according to local media. The search for the child has the country in suspense, but the prosecutor specified that investigators currently have “no leads, no information, no elements” to understand how he disappeared.
The searches in the area were stopped, but not the investigation Field work is almost complete and researchers continue to investigate all hypotheses. The opening of a national investigative unit has been decided by the Public Prosecutor’s Office: this will lead to new regional and national means to move forward. But not only. Other professionals and more advanced scientific analyzes will be added to the men currently employed. The country will probably also remain closed to outsiders at the weekend.
As for the investigations, we continue with the interrogations: we will listen to new people. Among them are some local residents who were out of town this week to speak with investigators. Others have stated that they have rented the house to third parties and therefore the tenants will also be summoned and heard.
In addition, other cars are being examined, with analysis of bloodstains on one car being able to rule out human origin.
The child’s family, who are said to be “very religious,” met for a prayer vigil at Vernet Chapel on Wednesday night. Featuring Emile’s parents, grandparents, uncles and villagers. “They are very close and are turning to religion to deal with this tragedy,” a witness told BfmTv.
“That Saturday Emile was not alone” Emile was on holiday in southern France with his grandparents. The place where he was last seen is a very small part of 25 inhabitants, which is about 2 kilometers from Vernet with 125 inhabitants.
As BfmTv found out, the boy was not alone with his grandparents on the weekend of his disappearance. A family reunion was actually taking place in this house to spend the weekend together: several uncles and aunts and other children of all ages, including some minors. There is talk of at least a dozen people having spent the weekend at the family home, and a neighbor said he saw Emile accompanied by his cousins on Saturday morning.
