The former television host and former Minister of Ecological Transition Nicolas Hulot is heard, Tuesday in free hearing, by investigators from the Brigade for the Protection of Minors (BPM) in Paris on suspicion of rape and sexual assault, confirmed the prosecution, requested by AFP.

Nicolas Hulot arrived at the BPM shortly before 2:00 p.m. in a taxi with tinted windows, AFP journalists noted.

In a report broadcast in November 2021 on France 2, six women accused him of sexual violence committed between 1989 and 2001. One of them, a minor at the time of the facts denounced, had then filed a complaint.
