Since December 2021, 69 bites in nightclubs or similar establishments have been identified in Brittany and Loire-Atlantique by the general prosecutor's office of the Rennes Court of Appeal.
According to the prosecution, the investigations did not make it possible to identify toxic substances, nor to determine the reason for these actions.
Sixty-nine bites have been recorded since December in discos and establishments of the same type in administrative Brittany and Loire-Atlantique, without any toxic substance being discovered, announced the general prosecutor's office in a press release.
"The reason for these acts, without associated compensation, theft or corollary violence, is not identified", writes the general prosecutor's office of the Rennes Court of Appeal, whose jurisdiction extends over the five departments of historic Brittany. .

"Investigations, in particular analysis and expertise, have been carried out. The results of these biological analyzes are all negative, both for GHB, the so-called 'rape' drug, and for other toxic substances", underlines the general prosecutor's office.
In order to give "a coherent and global response" to this phenomenon, the Attorney General has however given the instruction that the investigation services be co-seized with their "regional or zonal level".
