Two French police officers have been arrested and suspended after being accused of r@ping a young woman while she was in custody at a court building in Bobigny, a suburb north of Paris.
According to prosecutor Eric Mathais, the alleged assault occurred overnight between Tuesday, October 28, and Wednesday, October 29. The 26-year-old woman had been brought before the Bobigny public prosecutor’s office in connection with a case involving acts of parental neglect.
Mathais confirmed that the two suspects aged 23 and 35 “have not been police officers for long.” Both were taken into custody on Thursday, October 30, as part of an ongoing investigation.
