  • Four Paris police officials accused of raping Canadian woman
Four French officials have been detained for allegedly raping a Toronto woman at their Paris headquarters. 
 
The 34-year-old woman, who was touring Paris is a former Toronto-area police service employee and the daughter of a ranking police officer, as per news reports.
 
The officers are members of the Brigade de recherche et d'intervention, a squad that also handles anti-gang operations. 
 
Media reports suggest that the woman met the officers at a pub and went to the unit's headquarters with them, where she was allegedly raped. 
 
Le Parisien describes the four officers as a major, a brigadier, a captain and a lieutenant.

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve stated that "all necessary measures" will be taken if the allegations are true.
