Parisians are outraged after the shocking death of 12-year-old Lola Daviet, whose body was discovered abandoned in a plastic packing box just outside her apartment building on Friday.

Daviet’s hands and feet were bound and two Post-It notes were placed on each foot, one labelled “0” and the other “1.” Despite a visible gash on her neck, the autopsy report claimed Daviet died of asphyxiation. The girl’s mother told police of her daughter’s disappearance on Friday afternoon when she did not return from school.

Daviet was last seen on CCTV footage only hours before her death when she entered her Paris apartment building around 3:15 p.m. on Friday. Her father, who works as a caretaker for the property, told police he reviewed the building’s security video and saw his daughter accompanied by an unknown woman.

As authorities confirmed reports that the suspect was an illegal immigrant, the far-right and some in the conservatives' ranks said this showed failings in the government's law and order policies. "Too many crimes are being committed by clandestine immigrants one has not been able or willing to deport," French far-right leader Marine Le Pen said in Parliament. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Elizabeth Borne asked her to "show some decency."
