Accusations of sexual violence: Gérard Depardieu has to go to court
It’s about alleged attacks on the film set: actor Gérard Depardieu has to face a court hearing in France. He already had an appointment with the police.
Gérard Depardieu has received a court summons
At the end of the interrogation, Depardieu received a court summons, the prosecutor’s office said. The subject of the proceedings are alleged sexual assaults that are said to have occurred in September 2021 on the set of the film “Les volets verts” by director Jean Becker. After the interrogation, Depardieu was released from police custody, according to his lawyer.
Depardieu has already been reported several times for sexual violence. Since 2020, the judiciary has been investigating the alleged rape of actress Charlotte Arnould against the movie star. The actress Hélène Darras had also reported him for rape, but the case was dropped due to the statute of limitations. A journalist sued Depardieu for rape in Spain in 1995.
