A search was conducted Thursday, February 13 at the Parisian home of Gabriel Matzneff, learned Franceinfo from a judicial source. This operation was carried out by the police from the central office for the suppression of violence against persons (OCRVP). The Gabriel Matzneff case started at the end of December 2019 with the publication of the book The consent of Vanessa Springora, where she recounts her relationship of influence with the writer, when she was 14 years old and him 50.
A search had already taken place Wednesday February 12 in the premises of Gallimard editions in Paris within the framework of a preliminary investigation for “rapes committed on minor” against the writer Gabriel Matzneff. Gallimard published for 30 years the journal of the writer. Investigators were notably looking for unpublished manuscripts by Gabriel Matzneff, which could help identify victims of unspecified acts.
The national police also launched a “call to witnesses” to find the victims and witnesses of possible sexual assaults committed by Gabriel Matzneff. “The police encourage all those who have information to testify,” said the call released on Tuesday. Without naming the writer, the call to witnesses evokes the book The consent, Vanessa Springora and the opening by the Paris prosecutor’s office of an investigation.
