The French sailor is suspected of sexual assault for events that occurred in May in the United States. Kevin Escoffier will be reported Monday by the French Sailing Federation (FFV) to the sexual violence cell of the Ministry of Sports.
According to a source close to the case, it would be "a sexual assault". On Saturday, the Swiss crew PRB-Holcim announced the start of the 6th stage of The Ocean Race, a crewed round the world race with a stopover.
