Prosecutors Call for PSG's Achraf Hakimi to Face Rape Trial
ÎLE-DE-FRANCE, FRANCE, AUG 1 – Prosecutors requested a trial after charging PSG defender Achraf Hakimi with rape in March 2023; he faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.
- On August 1, 2025, French prosecutors formally requested that Achraf Hakimi, a 26-year-old PSG defender, stand trial for rape.
- The request follows a March 3, 2023 charge after a 24-year-old woman alleged Hakimi sexually assaulted her at his Boulogne-Billancourt home in February 2023.
- The woman claims she met Hakimi via Instagram in January 2023, exchanged messages, then traveled by taxi paid for by Hakimi to his residence where the assault allegedly occurred.
- Hakimi has rejected the accusations, asserting they are part of a scheme against him, while his attorney, Fanny Colin, criticized the prosecutors' request as unreasonable given the evidence presented in the case.
- The prosecutor’s office stated that the investigating magistrate must decide next steps, and if convicted, Hakimi could face up to 15 years in prison.
