The body of a 20-year-old North African man was discovered in a pond near Lyon. A suspect has been taken into custody in a murder investigation "based on race, ethnicity, nationality, or religion," the prosecutor's office announced to AFP on Thursday.
The young man's body was spotted Tuesday morning by walkers under a thin layer of ice in the Prin pond, in the small town of Loire-sur-Rhône (Rhône), about ten kilometers south of Lyon, Le Progrès reported. The newspaper also stated that a suspect had subsequently turned himself in at a police station.
The prosecution is seeking pre-trial detention.

“A judicial investigation for murder committed on the grounds of race, ethnicity, nationality or religion” was opened on Thursday and the man in custody “will be brought before an investigating judge,” the prosecutor’s office concluded, adding that it intends to request his “placement in pre-trial detention.”
