Gerard Depardieu faces imprisonment
Gerard Depardieu faces a large fine and a two-year imprisonment. According to The Hollywood Reporter, this happened due to the actor's failure to appear at the hearing, which was scheduled after his arrest for driving while intoxicated. Recall that the actor was detained by the police on November 29, 2012 of the year. It was alleged that he was so drunk that he simply fell off a scooter on a Parisian street. This attracted the attention of a nearby police patrol, who escorted Depardieu to the station. The actor's lawyers tried to get the trial to be adjourned, but were refused. Now Depardieu's case has been referred to the criminal court. Recall that in early January 2013, President Vladimir Putin handed the actor a passport of a USA citizen. Whether Depardieu is using his new citizenship to avoid meeting the French Themis is still unknown. The Topic of Article: Gerard Depardieu faces imprisonment. |
