The legendary French actor Alain Delon’s residence was searched by French authorities and 72 guns were taken; none of the weapons belonged to Delon.
In addition, police discovered a shooting range and almost 3,000 rounds of ammunition at the actor’s remote Douchy-Montcorbon house, which is located about 84 miles south of Paris.
Jean-Cedrix Gaux, the local prosecutor, stated that Delon, 88, “has no authorization that would allow him to own a firearm.”
In a number of his most well-known roles, such as “Borsalino,” the actor carried a revolver and is recognized for having invented the Hollywood cliché of the enigmatic, intelligent hitman, which first appeared in the 1967 picture “The Samurai.”
Since having a stroke in 2019, Delon has struggled with his health, and most lately, he has been the focus of an increasing family feud.
A judge was notified of the weaponry by a court-appointed officer who had been sent to the man’s residence, prompting the search warrant.
2019 saw Delon make his final significant public appearance to accept an honorary Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
Anthony Delon, the youngest of Delon’s five children, filed a police case in France last month against his sister Anouchka Delon, 33, for failing to notify him or his brother Alain-Fabien, 29, about their father’s five cognitive test failures at a private facility in Switzerland.
The fact that Delon is presently embroiled in a family feud over his £250 million inheritance made those exams very important.
More arguments over his Will resulted from the seasoned entertainer telling his family that the most recent Christmas may be his last.
Delon’s family has expressed dissatisfaction about his ‘psychological fragility’ being used against him, claiming that individuals around to him are after his possessions and money.
After Anthony Delon, Delon’s eldest son, claimed to the Paris Match magazine that his father was in a “weakened” position, the quarrel became public.
Anthony stated during the January interview that his sister “left me no choice.”
Anthony stated: “My sister never told my brother and me that my father took five cognitive tests at the clinic in Switzerland between 2019 and 2022, and he failed all of them.”
“These tests show cognitive degradation, which puts my father in a position of psychological weakness and therefore vulnerability,” the physicians said.
Delon’s 60-year-old live-in girlfriend, Hiromi Rollin, was forced out of the rural estate they shared in Douchy-Montcorbon, south of Paris, by the three children in July.
According to the depositions of Delon’s daughter and sons, Ms. Rollin not only stole money but also mistreated him and his Belgian Shepherd dog, Loubo, causing him to have a stroke in 2019.
They were afraid that Ms. Rollin, who maintains her innocence, had the ultimate goal of obtaining Delon’s whole fortune.
Through his attorney, Delon Sr. expressed his disbelief and promised to pursue a defamation lawsuit.
His three children’s complaint against his former live-in helper Hiromi Rollin, who they said was harassing and threatening, sparked first worries about him last year.
