Hugo Prevost, a recently elected deputy of La France Insoumise (LFI), has been excluded from the party following serious allegations of sexual misconduct.

The accusations, which date back to before his election, involve claims of moral and sexual harassment within the student union he co-founded.

The decision to exclude Prevost was made after a thorough review by the Committee of Vigilance against Sexist and Sexual Violence (CVSS) and aligns with LFI's commitment to combat gender-based violence.

The Union étudiante, where Prevost held a leadership role, has called for his resignation, citing a pattern of predatory behavior and control over women.

This incident echoes past controversies within LFI, highlighting ongoing challenges in addressing sexual misconduct within political circles.
