Gisele Pelicot’s ex-husband questioned over cold cases
The Independent
|January 31, 2025
Dominique Pelicot, the monster who horrified France by drugging his then wife, Gisele, so that other men could rape her is now caught up in other cases.
Pelicot is serving a 20-year prison term after he was found guilty in December of the horrific sexual abuse of his now ex-wife.
Pelicot's lawyer said that his client was due to be questioned yesterday by an investigating magistrate who specialises in socalled cold cases – those that have proved particularly hard to resolve.
The rape and murder cases that Pelicot was questioned about date back to the 1990s. One involves Sophie Narme, a property agent who was killed in Paris on 4 December 1991. The other is the attempted armed rape in the Paris suburb of Villeparisis, on 11 May 1999, of another woman with a similar profile.
