“A special taste”
The singer Slimane, targeted by a complaint for sexual harassment filed by a technician of one of his tours, admitted that this prize had a “special taste”. “My daughter, when you grow up I really hope that you will be proud of your dad. […] To my audience, sorry, from one human to many other human beings, thank you from the bottom of my heart,” he added, very moved.
This was his first public appearance since the revelation by “Le Parisien” of a complaint from a lawyer representing a technician who claims “to have been the victim of sexual harassment […] in December 2023, during a concert at the Zénith de Saint-Etienne”, according to the Saint-Etienne public prosecutor's office. The latter indicated that he was “waiting for evidence, in the form of various recordings, which this lawyer announced that he had and must send (to him)”, to decide on the possible opening of a preliminary investigation.
