The revelations never stop falling in the world of sport after the scandal revealed by L'Equipe on sexual assaults in figure skating. This time, it 's the turn of the French Federation of Mountains and Climbing (FFME). According to information from RTL, four complaints of "sexual abuse" are in the hands of the justice system.

This was confirmed by Pierre You, the voluntary president of the federation: “We are indeed faced with four cases. We accompany the victims and we institute civil action whenever possible. "

Four people are in the sights of justice - three of them are still active in the sports world - for facts dating back several years. "The facts were serious in one of the cases," continues Pierre You. Justice must work, but once again, I don't know where it stands. The girls who filed the complaint were between 15 and 16 years old at the time of the events.
