Two Elite Paris Police Officers Guilty Of Raping Canadian Tourist: Reports

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 31 Jan, 2019 08:33 PM

    PARIS — Two elite French police officers have reportedly been convicted of gang-raping a Canadian tourist inside Paris police headquarters.


    Local media reports say that the two anti-gang officers were handed seven years in prison and ordered to pay 20,000 euros in damages.


    The victim, Emily Spanton, who agreed to be publicly identified, is the daughter of a Toronto police officer.


    She was 34 when the officers raped her after a late-night encounter at a nearby pub in April 2014.


    Spanton said she felt she would be safer going to the police station than to her hotel.


    The officers, Nicolas Redouane and Antoine Quirin, had denied raping her.
