French court gives longer jail time to man in rape case

A court in France gave a man named Husamettin Dogan more time in jail. He got ten years in prison. Before, he had nine years. He went to court because he said he was not guilty, but the court did not believe him.

Gisèle Pelicot is the woman who was hurt. Her husband gave her drugs and let many men hurt her. Gisèle did not know what happened because she was sleeping from the drugs. The police found the men because the husband made videos.

Gisèle spoke in court. She said she did not know the men and did not say yes to them. She said she is the only victim. She also said she wants other people who are hurt to not feel shame. She hopes her family can be happy again one day.
