The host Nagui filed a complaint for “public insult” against his colleague Cyril Hanouna, for comments made on the air, and against the deputy Charles Alloncle for “complicity in aggravated moral harassment”, for having “thrown him out to pasture” by pointing out his remuneration, said Thursday the lawyer of the pillar of “Taratata”, confirming information from “Parisien”.
The complaint with civil party for “public insult”, filed on January 26 against Cyril Hanouna, targets comments made live on W9 on November 19, 2025.
The ex-figure of C8 had said, after looking at his cell phone, “Ah look, there is a mechanic who tells me + Nagui is my client, super asshole +”.
“Cyril Hanouna’s repeated attacks against Nagui are long-term. Being called a ‘super asshole’ constitutes a clear insult and could not be ignored or left unanswered,” commented to AFP Me Isabelle Wekstein, Nagui’s lawyer.
“He really thinks that’s all the judges have to do. Even if I’m a lawyer, I tell him ‘go do karaoke and stop bothering people’ (…) It’s just costing the French money for nothing,” Cyril Hanouna reacted Thursday evening in his show “Tout beau, tout neuf”.
“Thrown out to pasture”
Nagui also filed a complaint for “complicity in aggravated moral harassment” on May 20 against Charles Alloncle, rapporteur for the Ciottist UDR group of the commission of inquiry into public broadcasting.
This complaint is linked to the one that Nagui, a leading figure at France Télévisions, had previously filed on February 11 against X for cyberharassment.
During his hearing on April 1 before the commission, Nagui accused Charles Alloncle of having “thrown him out to pasture” and of having triggered a “campaign of hatred” by unduly asserting, according to the host, at the end of 2025 that he was “the person (…) who enriched himself the most with public money”.
Deploring “numerous racist messages”, Nagui criticized the deputy for having put his “family in danger”.
“For months, Charles Alloncle relayed serious accusations against Nagui. Despite warnings about the threats and cyberharassment of which Nagui was a victim, he knowingly maintained his actions, each time precipitating new waves of online harassment of rare violence,” underlined Mr. Wekstein.
Asked by AFP, Charles Alloncle considered the reason for the complaint “quite fanciful” and deplored this procedure “at a time when the courts are totally clogged”.
“Is it complicity in aggravated harassment to recall the amount of his remuneration? Is it complicity in aggravated harassment to say that he did not send us, even though he was obliged to do so, his contracts and his pay slips?” said the MP, adding that he had “a hard time seeing on what precise basis he can base this accusation”.
