Apparent suicide of Jean-Luc Brunel in Paris jail ends case against him unless other suspects are found

Victims of alleged sexual abuse by a French modelling agent have expressed shock and dismay after he was found dead in his cell, in an apparent echo of the prison suicide of his close associate, the disgraced US financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Paris police are investigating the death of Jean-Luc Brunel, 75, who had been charged with the rape of minors and was also being held on suspicion of trafficking underage girls for sex, whose body was found in La Santé prison early on Saturday.
