Hakimi to face trial over r@pe allegation, denies accusation

Moroccan footballer Achraf Hakimi is set to stand trial over a r@pe allegation.

The Paris Saint-Germain and Morocco national team defender denied the accusation in a social media post on Tuesday.

“Today, a r@pe accusation is enough to justify a trial, even though I deny it and everything proves it’s false,” Hakimi said in a post on X.

“This is as unjust to the innocent as it is to the genuine victims. I calmly await this trial, which will allow the truth to come out publicly.”

The Nanterre prosecutor’s office opened an investigation in 2023 following a r@pe allegation made against the player.

The prosecutor did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
