France At the beginning of a trial that will reveal details of the biggest alleged paedophile case in French history, a surgeon who has been accused of sexually abusing hundreds of patients finally faced his alleged victims. As Judge Aude Buresi opened the hearing, white-haired Joel Le Scouarnec, 74, stepped out of a cell into a courtroom in the city of Vannes, Brittany, to verify his name. He was wearing a black jacket and a beige jumper. "Surgeon" was his response when asked what his occupation was "before being incarcerated." 00:14 02:24 symbol Continue Reading 299 boys and girls are alleged to have been raped or assaulted by the bespectacled surgeon over thirty years - many of whom were sedated after surgery at the hospitals in France where Le Scouarnec worked. Following the conviction of 51 men in December for raping or assaulting Gisele Pelicot at the request of her husband, Dominique, the trial is the second significant sexual abuse case to rattle France in as many months.

After being found guilty in 2020 of attacking a six-year-old next-door neighbour, a four-year-old patient, and two of his nieces, Le Scouarnec is currently serving a 15-year prison sentence. Promotion Only in 2017 did the six-year-old victim inform her parents that "the man with a crown of white hair" had harassed her over their garden fence, revealing the full extent of his alleged offence called the cops. Police discovered 300,000 images and videos of child abuse as well as diaries that detailed his attacks on boys and girls, including the names of the victims, the attacks' descriptions, and the dates, during the subsequent raid on his property in the small town of Jonzac, southwest France.
