๐จ๐จโโ๏ธ ๐ข๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: A French court has confirmed today that Achraf Hakimi will stand trial for rape with the incident in question occurring in February 2023 in Paris.
Hakimi has released a statement denying the allegations:
โ๏ธ "Justice looked me in the eyes and said to me: 'If you weren't famous, there never would have been a case.'
I chose to remain silent for years. I thought that staying dignified, being patient, and trusting the justice system would allow the right decisions to be made.
Today, a story that is not mine is being told at the expense of my family, my life, and above all, the truth. Sometimes I feel like I've become an easy target. I've been waiting for this trial since day one. And now I'm looking forward to it. Finally, I will be able to speak."
