On Tuesday, March 18, 2025, two suspects were arrested in Saint-Denis, Seine-Saint-Denis, as part of the investigation surrounding the burglary of prominent Youtuber, known as "Inaxtag." The arrest marks significant progress as authorities link rapper Gahoussou Sylla, known by his stage name "Landy," to the organized robbery.
The burglary, which took place on November 6, 2024, at Inaxtag's property located in Poissy, Yvelines, has been under investigation by the Versailles Banditry Repression Brigade. According to reports from BFM TV, the two men taken by police are suspected of being part of a larger criminal plan to target the rising Youtuber's residence.
Prior to the arrest, the case garnered media attention following the incident where intruders forced open the window of the living room to access the house. Witnesses provided preliminary reports stating the burglars left with primarily computer equipment along with several collectible Pokémon cards. The total estimated value of stolen items was around €10,000. An official from the investigation conveyed to reporters the seriousness of the organized nature of the crime.
Upon examination of the crime scene, it was clear the intruders had thoroughly searched the residence, leading authorities to believe they were after more than just material possessions. Inaxtag, who typically does not reside at the property, reported, "They broke the window with a crowbar, and I don't know what they were searching for exactly." With millions of followers across platforms, the burglary places heightened scrutiny on the safety and security of public figures.
Landy, the 29-year-old rapper, has previously captured attention not only for his music but also for his checkered past, which includes run-ins with law enforcement related to issues of violence and substance trafficking. His history has made headlines, raising questions about his alleged involvement as orchestrator of the burglary. Police records reveal his known associations with street gangs and potential ties to similar burglaries.
Continuing the investigation, authorities have obtained video evidence purporting to show two individuals dressed in black rifling through Inaxtag's home. Allegedly, one of the informants named Landy as the ringleader behind the heist, supporting claims of his prior knowledge of the Youtuber's public engagements and lifestyle.
The Versailles Banditry Repression Brigade confirmed the arrests were made within hours of actionable tips, indicating swift law enforcement response to the potential threat. Both suspects remain detained for questioning, and the investigation is still underway to ascertain their roles and any additional accomplices involved.
Notably, this episode is not the first time Inaxtag has fallen victim to crime. He previously revealed on social media about being robbed during his ascent of Mount Everest, where he lost various valuable items from his collection of sneakers and watches. With this latest incident, the Youtuber expressed concerns over the security of his assets and personal safety.
Social media has been abuzz with discussions surrounding the burglaries targeting influencers, emphasizing the increasing risks such individuals face due to their public exposure and wealth. Many followers have taken to various platforms to offer support for Inaxtag and to voice their concerns about the growing trend of crimes against social media personalities across France.
Despite this distressing event, Inaxtag remains proactive about addressing his security practices. His fans have rallied around him, sharing advice and expressing solidarity as he communicates his experiences with theft through humor and positivity. He managed to frame the ordeal as part of the ups and downs of celebrity life, even mentioning, "I've had two burglaries within six months. It's quite the story for my fans, I suppose!"
Legal ramifications for Landy and his accomplice may extend if new evidence emerges implicatively. The intense scrutiny surrounding their apprehension reflects broader societal issues concerning celebrity culture and crime, urging authorities and citizens alike to seek out more organized ways to secure personal properties against future threats.
The adorned career of Inaxtag only emphasizes the rich narrative intertwining entertainment and real-life challenges faced by public figures. Following this burglary, the future of the entertainer's ventures is uncertain, yet his resilience remains unwavering as he continues to create digital content and interact with his multitude of fans, telling them to stay tuned for what lies ahead.
