The brother of Jérôme Barella, born in 1982, has just been placed in police custody at the Auch police station on suspicion of rape of his ex-partner, according to information from BFMTV from corroborating sources. The complainant, an ex-partner, denounces events that took place in 2007 and 2017, and filed a complaint in 2024. The two brothers no longer maintained family ties. Contacted on multiple occasions, the Auch public prosecutor's office has so far not responded to BFMTV's requests.
