A French hard-right activist, Anne-Thaïs du Tertre d’Escœurffant, who also uses the pseudonym Thaïs d’Escufon online, is facing possible jail following legal action over statements she made on television. Reports say she claimed she was sexually assaulted by a man described as Tunisian. In the same period, she made remarks asserting that migrants are “the main danger to women in France,” drawing criticism.
A French anti-racism organisation has sued her related to those comments. The case is described as focused on whether her statements violate French laws governing insults or incitement linked to origin or nationality. The outlets reporting the matter state that she is now at risk of incarceration as the legal process proceeds.
The reports do not describe the outcome of the assault claim or the specific court timeline, but they indicate that the lawsuit centers on her public messaging rather than the underlying allegation of assault alone.
