A source conducting the investigation said on Monday, as the “Daily Mail” writes: “Mr Depardieu was summoned to appear today at a Paris police station and is currently in custody. He is being investigated for two alleged sexual assaults that took place in 2014 and 2021.”
Depardieu strongly denies all the accusations against him. The first complainant stated that she was assaulted in September 2021, when the actor touched her and made obscene gestures. It is a woman, 53 years old, who is named Amelie. A witness managed to pull him away from the woman, it is claimed.

The second complainant says she was attacked in March 2014 during the filming of the short film “Le Magician et les Siamois” in Doué-la-Fontaine, near Nantes, in western France. The crew also met at his home Depardieu in Paris, where the 24-year-old production assistant was allegedly assaulted, while the actor again made lewd comments.
Amelie’s lawyer, Carine Durrieu-Diebolt, said the evidence indicated “sexual assault, harassment and abuse”. Ms. Durrieu-Diebolt also represents Charlotte Arnold28, who claims she was raped and sexually assaulted by Depardieu.
