French prosecutors have requested arrest warrants for the managers of Australian streaming service Kick over a man's death during a live broadcast on the platform. The 46-year-old Frenchman, Raphael Graven - known online as "Jean Pormanove" or "JP" - died in August 2025 during a 12-day livestream that featured him enduring abuse and humiliation by other participants. Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said she was asking the presiding judge to issue the warrants after Kick managers failed to respond to a summons to appear for questioning.
