Gisèle Pelicot tells appeal trial she never gave consent to man convicted of rape | Gisèle Pelicot

Gisèle Pelicot, who survived dozens of men for almost decades after he was numbed by his ex -husband for almost decades, said to a French court that he never allowed anyone to illustrate him while he was in a coma and that no victim should feel ashamed.

Referring to the appeal of an unemployed builder who objected to his conviction on the grounds that he raped him, he said: “For me, I will have to rebuild these ruins and I think I’m on the right way – but what I want to say to the others is that I have never been responsible for my decisions.”

72 -year -old Pelicot, last year, 51 men in the case of rape and sexual assault in the case of renunciation of his identity to remain confidential, became an international feminist hero. Former husband Dominique Pelicot, one of the worst sex criminals in modern French history, was found to be guilty of crushing dozens of stranger to dinner and preventive drugs and inviting dozens of stranger to rape him between 2011 and 2020.

The other 50 people who were tried with him were found guilty. Hüsamettin Dogan, a married father, who was sentenced to nine years in prison, objected to his conviction for rape. He is re -tried at the appeal court in Nîmes, south of France.

On Wednesday, the court told the police inspectors that Dogan was raped several times when Pelicot was unconscious in his bedroom. The chief judge said Pelicot was in danger of drowning. Dogan was smiling in the videos.

Although Pelicot’s loud snoring and looking in a coma, Dogan said the videos showed “sex scenes” and rejected that it was rape. He said it was “sexual action”, not rape. He said in court, “I never raped it.”

“This is not a sex scene, rape. Moreover, without a condom.” During the investigation, having to watch this video evidence, “these scenes are engraved in my memory forever, and I’m trying to rebuild myself,” he said.

He said that he had never met Doğan and did not consent.

“I’m trying to understand how this person never accepted Madame Pelicot.

Pelicot, 13 -piece evidence videos, even though he can not watch the carefully watched Dogan, he said. He said: “I saw what he likes [watching the videos]. He didn’t even take his eyes for a moment. “

He turned to him and said: “You didn’t understand. When will you understand that you raped me?

The court had heard that Dogan said in an interview to the police inspectors when Pelicot came to his bedroom when he came to the bedroom. Pelicot said to him: “You say you went quickly. I would go right away before I raped it. I am ashamed for you because I put myself in the victim.”

Dogan told the court that Dominique Pelicot felt that he was a victim because of his “manipulation”. Gisèle Pelicot said, “You say you’re a victim. The only victim in your room is mine … I’m ashamed of your name.”

Dominique Pelicot, who testified at the hearing at the beginning of this week, told the court that he would call men in a conversation room called “except his knowledge” and tell them on the phone: “I’m looking for someone to harass him after he puts my wife to sleep.”

On Wednesday, Pelicot told the court that her husband had not been aware that her husband had given her medicine for almost ten years and invited foreigners to rape him. He said that he was given medicine and brought to “general anesthesia”. For years, Alzheimer has suffered continuous memory loss, which he feared that he was the beginning. He consulted neurologists, but her husband always came to the appointments with him. No doctor thought to investigate whether he was given medicine.

Pelicot said that four sexually transmitted diseases, which remain from the years of rape and require continuous treatment and follow -up, now live with life -long results. He told the court that the doctors had recently found “an abnormality”, that he did a biopsy and expects the results to find out if he needs surgery.

Pelicot said to the court: “These people saw this still woman when they came to my room. They said they thought I was a role, but at what point they asked me if they were a problem? They didn’t ask for my approval at any point. I never approved. They are completely responsible for what they have done.”

Dogan’s defense lawyer Jean-Marc Darrigade told Pelicot that he was an icon. He said that the defense was “ridiculous” in the marriage life that he interrogated naked photographs or movies. “To justify themselves is always the work of the victims,” he said.

Pelicot, the police in 2020 in a supermarket, caught the skirt of women caught Dominique Pelicot’nun calling the phone after the emergence of crimes for the whole family “a tsunami, an explosion,” he said.

Caroline Darian praised her daughter Caroline Darian for her organization that raised awareness about drug -backed rape and supports the victims. Darian believes that between 2010 and 2020, when he was in his 30s and 2020, he was given calming by his father for a period of 10 years and that he had been sexually assault or raped.

Pelicot said: “For my daughter, the situation is much more difficult and I hear it and I understand it. He’s in doubt and never answers … I know that he has made legal complaints. I hope he gets the answers I can’t give to him.”

Pelicot said that the family, which he always said they were very close, could overcome this challenging process.

The decision is expected to be announced on Thursday.
