Paris: Presenter Matthieu Delormeau taken into custody on suspicion of trying to buy cocaine: News

The TV host, and former member of Cyril Hanouna’s gang on C8, was allegedly caught red-handed buying cocaine outside his home on Monday, July 1, reports Le Parisien. Released from police custody, Matthieu Delormeau has been summoned under “therapeutic injunction” by the Paris prosecutor’s office.

Intercepted in the middle of an alleged cocaine transaction on Monday July 1, Matthieu Delormeau spent several hours in police custody before being released with a summons from the Paris prosecutor’s office for “therapeutic injunction for drug use”revealed The Parisian Tuesday July 2nd.

According to the daily, the fifty-year-old presenter and former columnist of Do not touch My TV on C8, was arrested Monday at midday, not far from his home in the 6th arrondissement, by the 3rd DPJ of Paris. The police had arrested his alleged dealer a few minutes earlier, who was carrying several grams of cocaine. Although Matthieu Delormeau did not have any drugs on him at the time of his arrest, he had 300 euros in his possession. The search of his apartment found cocaine, some cannabis, MDMA and a small quantity of GHB. Five grams of cocaine were also found at the home of the arrested dealer, who lives in Boulogne-Billancourt (Hauts-de-Seine).

Medical monitoring over several months

Questioned by the police on the circumstances of this transaction, Matthieu Delormeau has not yet spoken on this matter, explains The Parisian this Tuesday, July 2. The 50-year-old columnist and host has been the subject of several controversies for some of his comments made on the show Do not touch My TV on C8, which he definitively left in 2023. According to the public health code detailed by the Légifrance website, the summons for therapeutic injunction gives rise to medical measures that the defendant must respect for several months. The person subject to a therapeutic injunction can thus choose the doctor who will ensure their follow-up, and the proper progress of the treatment.
