Ex-husband gets 20 yrs in jail for letting 50 rape his spouse
The New Indian Express Hyderabad|December 20, 2024
A court in France on Thursday sentenced the ex-husband of Gis'le Pelicot to a maximum 20 years of imprisonment for drugging and raping her and allowing other men to rape her while she was knocked out, in abuse that lasted a decade.

The sentence against Dominique Pelicot was declared after he was found guilty of all charges against him. At age 72, it could mean that he spends the rest of his life in prison.

The verdict was read by the lead judge of the court in Avignon, Roger Arata.

Arata read out verdicts one after the other against Pelicot and 50 other men, declaring 'you are therefore declared guilty of aggravated rape on the person of Gis'le Pelicot' as he worked his way through the first names on the list.
