Gisele Pelicot has blasted the “cowardice” of the dozens of men accused of abusing her during a decade of mass rape organised by her husband as she called for an end to a “macho, patriarchal society where rape is trivialised”.
Her husband, Dominique Pelicot, has admitted in court to drugging his wife and inviting strangers to their house to rape her when she was unconscious, while most of the 50 other men on trial have denied rape, with verdicts set to be delivered around 20 December.
