Ex-husband asks 'forgiveness' from family

"I would like to start by hailing the courage of my ex-wife," Gisele Pelicot, her ex-husband Dominique Pelicot said in his final statement to the court ahead of the verdict later in the week.

"I regret what I did, making (my family) suffer... I ask them for forgiveness," he said, asking the family to "accept my apologies".

In a trial that shocked the country, Dominique Pelicot, 72, has admitted to drugging his then wife Gisele Pelicot for almost a decade so he and strangers he recruited online could rape her.
