Feminist protesters cheered mass rape victim Gisele Pelicot as she left the courthouse in southern France where prosecutors gave their sentencing demands for the accused on Monday, November 25. Prosecutors asked for the maximum 20-year prison sentence for Dominique Pelicot, who organized the mass rape of his then-wife by knocking her unconscious with drugs and inviting dozens of strangers to abuse her. For other defendants, the prosecution called for shorter sentences, with hearings continuing on Tuesday. The verdicts and sentences are expected around Dec. 20. https://www.voanews.com/a/french-prosecutors-seek-20-year-term-for-pelicot-in-mass-rape-case/7876738.html » Subscribe to VOA News: https://bit.ly/3KIPysi » Watch more VOA News video: https://www.youtube.com/c/VOANews Voice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.
