Émile, whose age and the circumstances of his disappearance are still unknown, has been missing since July 8, causing great concern among his relatives and the local community. Faced with this worrying situation, the local authorities immediately launched a search to try and trace the missing toddler. To no avail.
Intensified excavations
In the search for clues, dogs specially trained in the detection of human remains were deployed to the scene. These dogs, with their highly developed sense of smell, are invaluable in spotting potential traces of Émile. A source told BFMTV:
These are dogs that don't work in the early days of a disappearance, when we're hoping to find a missing person alive. In the first instance, it's the Groupes d'Investigation Cynophile (GIC) and then the Saint-Hubert dogs that are used. In a third phase, these dogs, trained to find human remains, are used.
