French police detained actor Gérard Depardieu for a brief time Monday for questioning over sexual assault allegations. The French actor was charged with rape and sexual assault in 2020.
The actor's lawyer, Christian Saint-Palais, later told reporters at the police station in the 14th district of Paris that: "The police custody is over. He is no longer held in the police station," but declined to make any further comment.
The Paris police force said it wasn’t authorized to comment and directed questions to the Paris prosecutor’s office, which said it had no comment "at this stage."
