Two police officers have been jailed for seven years in Paris for raping a Canadian woman in a prominent police headquarters.

Emily Spanton, 39, told the court she had met a group of police officers in a bar, where they offered to give her a tour of the headquarters at 36 Quai des Orfevres, which is well known in French film and literature.
