A former human resources director for France’s Ministry of Culture is accused of systematically drugging more than 240 women with diuretics during job interviews over several years.
Christian Nègre, the alleged perpetrator, reportedly offered job candidates coffee or tea laced with a potent diuretic. This practice caused the women to develop an urgent need to urinate.
Nègre then allegedly prolonged the interviews for hours, often suggesting extended walks and deliberately choosing locations without access to public restrooms.
Victims described feeling unwell and experiencing extreme discomfort. Some women were forced to urinate in public, while others reportedly urinated on their clothing.

Christian Nègre, former HR director of the French Ministry of Culture, is accused of drugging more than 240 women with diuretics in job interviews. The case reignites the debate about “chemical submission” in the country, after the Gisèle Pelicot case.
This case has reignited a national debate in France regarding “chemical submission.” The allegations highlight the vulnerability of individuals in professional settings.
The discussion around chemical submission gained prominence following the Gisèle Pelicot case. In that instance, a woman was drugged for years by her ex-husband so he could facilitate her rape by other men.
