Population Minister Voahanginirina Cathia Rakotoniaina visited the families of Stéphanie and Haingotiana to offer condolences and support following the tragic deaths of the two young women. Accompanied by her staff, the minister expressed compassion to the victims' relatives. She also called for calm and patience, emphasizing the need to await official explanations and results from investigations conducted by competent authorities.

Investigation already underway. When questioned about a possible 50 million ariary reward mentioned in connection with this case, law enforcement clarified that this initiative did not come from them. A joint investigation has been established and inquiries are already fully underway. Investigators are conducting phone tracking, exploiting social media, and interviewing several people who may provide useful information to establish the truth. The family has launched an appeal for witnesses from anyone with reliable information that could help investigators. However, no official statement has been made on this matter. Haingotiana's family has chosen to remain silent, while the body remains in the village. According to available information, the funerals of the two young women are scheduled for Wednesday. Stéphanie and Haingotiana disappeared on Friday. Their disappearance quickly sparked significant mobilization, particularly on social media, where appeals for witnesses were circulated to trace them. After several days of searching, the two young women were found dead in a ravine at Ambohimanga Rova. The exact circumstances of their deaths remain to be determined and are now under investigation.

Many questions. This case has sparked strong emotion and numerous questions among the public. Some are questioning other deaths that occurred previously, for which official information had mentioned the hypothesis of ritual sacrifices and led to the imprisonment of certain individuals. While these previous cases appeared to have stalled, the deaths of Stéphanie and Haingotiana have revived concerns and questions. Is there a link to possible sacrificial practices or is it an entirely different motive? At this stage, no hypothesis can be confirmed. Investigators must establish the facts and provide specific evidence to determine the circumstances, motive, and possible perpetrators of the deaths of the two young women. Public opinion now awaits the official conclusions of the investigation.
