Inass is enrolled in preschool but will never attend, too marked by her mother's blows, Ahmed Touloub, the father, explained at the hearing.
The only trace of Inass's life is a photo projected at the hearing: black curly hair, sitting next to her grandmother. It is the only moment of light in the day.
The little girl appears to have been her mother's punching bag in a hermetically sealed family enclosure, after a first year spent with her maternal grandmother in Casablanca.
Small red and blue arrows cover a drawing of the body, from feet to head.
The dwelling adjoins a small shop bought and run by the father, on a busy thoroughfare.
The little girl, then four years old, had two older sisters aged 9 and 6 and three younger brothers aged 3 years, 1 year and 13 days.
