French Rugby Players Face Rape Allegations in Mendoza
Woman Accuser Hospitalized Due to Physical Imbalance
A 39-year-old woman, who accused two French rugby players of raping and beating her in a Mendoza hotel early Sunday morning, has been hospitalized due to a general physical imbalance. Her lawyer, Natacha Romano, confirmed the news on Thursday.
Mood Disorder and Physical Imbalance
The woman has a pre-existing mood disorder, also known as "hypothymia". The traumatic events of the alleged rape and beating have caused a general physical imbalance, which is being treated in the hospital. The lawyer did not disclose the name of the clinic or the expected duration of her stay, but indicated that it would be for between 24 and 48 hours.
Accused Rugby Players
The two accused rugby players are 20-year-old Hugo Auradou and 21-year-old Oscar Jegou.
