Under investigation for aggravated rape since the beginning of July, Oscar Jégou and Hugo Auradou are still not sure of their fate. But it shouldn't take long, since after having postponed its verdict indefinitely, the Argentine justice system has finally announced a date to finally bring this endless series to a close.
The controversy resurfaced after a few weeks of calm. Indeed, still the target of an investigation by the Argentine police, Oscar Jegou found the grounds of Top 14 this Saturday, November 2, for the reception of French Stadium (35-18). The third line of Stade Rochelais was a starter for the first time this season, which did not fail to get people talking.
“It was with shock that we heard the cheers from the public when he scored a try”
The least we can say is that he made a resounding return with a very good performance crowned with a try, which earned him an ovation from the Marcel-Deflandre audience. But not everyone liked it, since the association Dare feminism let out a rant. “ It was with shock that we heard the cheers from the crowd when he scored a try. Is Deflandre's audience so prevented from thinking that a little restraint is impossible for them? We can't believe it » we can read in a press release published very recently.
Response on November 25?
However, we should soon know the end of the story in this soap opera, which has lasted far too long. According to information from Parisianthe Mendoza public prosecutor's office which is in charge of the case concerning Oscar Jégou as well as his teammate Hugo Auradouwould have set the date of November 25 to deliver his verdict. This is a big step forward, since the Argentine courts had postponed the dismissal hearing three times, recently deciding to postpone it without setting any official deadline.
