Achraf Hakimi, PSG winger, formally accused of rape

The Moroccan defender of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Acharf Hakimi has been formally charged for the alleged rape of a young woman last weekend, the Prosecutor's Office reported to Efe this Friday. The procedure against the footballer is being carried out in the Nanterre Court, whose Prosecutor's Office opened an investigation after the victim appeared at the Nogent-sur-Marne police station and recounted the facts, although he did not want to file a complaint.

This Thursday afternoon, the 24-year-old Moroccan international was indicted on the charge of rape. The Public Ministry specified that a judicial control has been imposed on him that prevents him from coming into contact with the victim, although he has been released.

According to local media, the young woman came into contact with the footballer on January 16 through social networks and last Saturday, on the eve of a decisive league duel between her team and Olympique de Marseille, which the Moroccan missed. due to injury, he invited the young woman to his home in Boulogne-Billancourt, on the outskirts of Paris.

The woman went aboard an Uber requested by the soccer player, as specified by the newspaper Le Parisien. According to the victim, the soccer player went too far: he kissed her on her lips despite her rejection, lifted her clothes and kissed her breasts and even inserted his fingers into her vagina, although she resisted her. The girl managed to get rid of the attacker with a kick from her and sent a message to a friend of hers, who came looking for her.

At the time the news of his accusation was released, Hakimi, born in Madrid in 1998, was already training normally with his PSG teammates.
