A pornographic film actor was indicted on Wednesday, in particular for gang rape, as part of the investigation in Paris on the “French Bukkake” video platform, a judicial source and a source familiar with the matter said on Friday.
According to the judicial source, which confirmed information from BFMTV, this 39-year-old man was indicted for human trafficking in an organized gang and gang rape to the detriment of two victims. He was placed under judicial supervision.
This actor had been arrested on Monday, said the source familiar with the matter.
At least 17 people – actors, directors, producers – have already been indicted in this judicial investigation opened in October 2020 for aggravated human trafficking, gang rape or even aggravated pimping.
More than forty victims have joined as civil parties, as well as associations.
According to elements of the investigation consulted by AFP, the platform of “Pascal OP” identified under the name of “French Bukkake”, the name of a sexual practice, first attracted the attention of investigators: a subscription allowed customers to participate in priority to these collective ejaculations, with places reserved for sessions without condoms.
This system, aimed at making individuals pay in exchange for organized sexual relations, has fueled suspicions of pimping in the eyes of the courts.
According to the source familiar with the matter, the investigation is coming to an end and should be closed “by the end of the first quarter”.
The French porn industry has been in the spotlight for two years: another survey carried out in Paris since July 2020 targets “Jacquie et Michel”, the embodiment in France of amateur porn and tricolor pillar of this industry.
Michel Piron, the site’s founder, was indicted in June for complicity in rape and human trafficking in an organized gang. Three other men are also prosecuted in this judicial investigation also opened for aggravated pimping or rape with torture and act of barbarism.
