For several weeks, Carl De Moncharline, whose real name is Carl De Rijcke, has been the subject of several complaints for sexual assault. The man, well known to nightlife in Brussels, had always denied all these allegations broadcast in an RTBF documentary about certain practices in his now closed Wood establishment. A mother in particular spoke of facts dating back several years. She reportedly picked up two of her daughter’s friends in a daze from the nightclub and took them to the hospital for examination. The analyzes would have revealed the presence of GHB, the “date-rape drug”, in their blood. The mothers of these two young girls would have gone to the police to denounce these attacks. They would then have learned that complaints already existed against Carl De Moncharline.
In the process, he had to step aside from his post as director of the Imperial establishment. There is no indication at this time that he will return to his old job. No comments have yet filtered from the Board of Directors.
In response, the owner did file a complaint against X for slander and defamation, as he announced on social networks after the broadcast. This Monday, Bruzz indicates that all the complaints for rape with chemical submission against the figure of the Brussels nightlife Carl De Moncharline have been dismissed. Information confirmed by the Brussels public prosecutor’s office with our Dutch-speaking colleagues. “I’m glad to hear it”he reacted. “I knew the complaints were lies”he briefly added.
The Brussels public prosecutor’s office has also confirmed that an investigation was opened several months ago against Jean-Claude Van Damme in connection with a complaint relating to facts dating back to August 20 at the Imperial Private Premium Bar Brussels, a establishment then run by Carl de Moncharline.
