French civil servant drugged us to make us urinate on ourselves, say accusers

"I was really weak. I couldn't really feel my legs any more," says Anaïs de Vos. "I was scared. I didn't know what was happening."

It was July 2011 and Anaïs, who was then 27, was being interviewed for a job at France's Ministry of Culture in Paris.

She didn't usually drink coffee but when the interviewer, a senior civil servant called Christian Nègre, offered her one, she agreed out of politeness.

He made it himself, she tells BBC Global Women, but "it tasted bad… so I drank about half".

The meeting had started in the office, but after a few minutes Nègre suggested they go outside.

As they strolled through Paris's streets, Anaïs began to feel an inexplicable and uncontrollable need to urinate.

"He looked me right in the eye and said, 'Oh, do you need a wee?'

"I felt like a child. I thought it was really weird the way he looked at me, almost gleeful."
