Overview
- The Créteil prosecutor’s office confirmed Caubère, 75, was placed under formal investigation for proxénétisme on November 24, following a report by BFMTV and AFP.
- This development adds to his February 2024 status under investigation for rape, sexual assault and corruption of a minor involving three complainants for alleged acts spanning roughly 2010 to 2021.
- Complainant Agathe Pujol alleges she was forced into paid sex with hundreds of men, with contacts arranged via online ads and encounters at several locations.
- Caubère denies coercion, asserting the relationships were consensual, and he previously acknowledged a four‑month relationship in 2012 with a 16‑year‑old that he says was consensual.
- He remains free under judicial supervision with bans on contacting accusers and working with minors, while his former lawyer Marie Dosé was charged in October over alleged removal or alteration of a potentially compromising computer.
