TOPSHOT - Lawyer Delphine Meillet leaves after the trial proceedings in which French actor Gerard Depardieu and French writer Yann Moix accuse television network France 2's investigative programme "Complement d'Enquete" of an unlawful edit and abuse of trust, which in turn filed a lawsuit against the two individuals accusing them of false accusation, at the Paris courthouse on April 17, 2026. The dispute centres on a sequence filmed in 2018 during a trip to North Korea, broadcast in December 2023, in which Depardieu is seen making sexually explicit remarks as a young girl on horseback appears on screen. Depardieu and Moix have contested the broadcast, accusing the programme's producers and France Télévisions of an unlawful edit and abuse of trust, arguing the comments did not refer to the child.
