Claude Gillot
Claude Gillot was a French priest and scholar known for his work in Islamic studies, serving as a professor at the University of Aix-Marseille. He gained notoriety for his role in the baptism of a young boy named Emile, whose mysterious disappearance in July 2023 has led to significant media coverage and investigation. The relationship between Gillot and Emile's family soured after he provided a photo of the child to the press, leading to tensions that were reportedly exacerbated by accusations exchanged with the child's grandfather. Tragically, Gillot took his own life on March 15, 2024, leaving behind a letter expressing anger towards Emile's family, which highlighted the emotional turmoil surrounding the ongoing investigation into the child's disappearance.
