Patrick Bruel Allowed to Travel Abroad: His Judicial Oversight Eased, Appeal Upheld
The courts validated Wednesday the decision allowing the singer to travel outside France, despite the prosecution's appeal. Nine new complaints have been filed since his indictment in late June.
The courts confirmed Wednesday the easing of Patrick Bruel's judicial oversight, now allowing him to travel abroad, according to information reported by France 24.
This decision to relax restrictions had been announced in late July. The prosecution had then appealed, seeking to maintain the travel restrictions imposed on the artist.
Patrick Bruel was indicted in late June in four separate cases involving sexual violence. Since that indictment, nine new complaints have been filed against the singer, according to the same source.
Wednesday's decision thus confirms the artist's authorization to travel abroad, despite the prosecution's challenge.
