A clerk of Saint-Etienne is being prosecuted for disclosing evidence of an investigation involving one of her cousins, who was held in custody on charges of "attempted rape".
A clerk of the High Court of Saint-Etienne was arrested last week for "breach of professional secrecy", according to information collected by Europe 1. She is prosecuted for disclosing evidence on an investigation involving one of his cousins, placed in pre-trial detention for "attempted rape".
Information about DNA traces
The clerk, who is in her 40s and works for a liberty and detention judge, has reportedly agreed to provide family members with information about the DNA clues identified by the investigators.
Because it involved an official of the court of Saint-Etienne, the case was "dépaysée" and is followed by the parquet of Lyon. Thursday, March 21, at the end of her custody, the clerk was indicted and placed under judicial control, with prohibition to practice, said the prosecutor.
