France: Juan Branco Currently Facing Threat of Rape Trial

Lawyer Juan Branco is facing the threat of a trial for the rape of a woman in 2021, according to the definitive indictment issued by the Paris prosecutor's office on August 6, 2026. This request for trial follows the oldest complaint filed against him, while the prosecutor seeks a dismissal in two other sexual assault cases from 2017. Juan Branco, who has denied all accusations, claims a political conspiracy aimed at discrediting him.
