During its indictment, the public prosecutor was surprised by ultimately not retaining the accusation of joint rape. And, on Friday, the Vevey Court followed the same line when rendering its verdict. The president stressed that the credibility of the trio is weak, “if not zero”, we can read in “24 Heures”. However, she grants the three young accused the benefit of the doubt, since the victim’s version is partly contradicted by the evidence. It is therefore possible that this sad evening in June 2022 did not start with a rape.
The episode in the vineyards, on the other hand, was indeed considered an act of banditry. For the record, the three defendants and a minor had taken the victim, a prostitute with whom they had had paid relations, to an isolated place, near Chardonne. At least two of them then mishandled her, and ended up stealing her handbag, including the money from the pass. The ringleader of the gang was sentenced to 28 months in prison, including 14 months. His accomplices received 21 and 12 months suspended for 4 years, details “24 Heures”.
