Élysée Adé had proclaimed himself the leader of a group called “The Warriors of Light”. The trial of what looks like a guru opens this Monday, October 3, at the Paris Criminal Court. This 53-year-old man is on trial for “abuse of weakness” on 22 people, but also “sexual assault” on one of them.
The man in his fifties today recruited his followers during endless and exhausting kung fu sessions in the Parc de la Villette, northeast of Paris. Charismatic, Élysée Adé had brought together the perfect ingredients of a sect: creation of a hierarchy among the members, threats of exclusion, paid therapies … Not to mention his influence on the women of the group, summoned to weigh barely 40 kilos .
An organization put into action against the backdrop of a crazy project, according to Me Rodolphe Bosselut, the lawyer for several plaintiffs. “The guru has the idea of a great mission and it is neither more nor less than to save the world thanks to the women he has been able to discoverhe explains. These women whom he will have taught to have orgasms alone and to have passed through the eight orgasmic gates that would exist, who therefore do not need a man, will be able to bring peace on Earth.”
Followers, promoted “orgasm experts”, forced to masturbate at least five times a day and report it. A grip until the alleged aggravated sexual assault for one of them. Élysée Adé risks up to seven years in prison, which defends itself from any drift. For his lawyer, it is revenge that guides the plaintiffs excluded from the group.
