It was at high speed that the Nanterre public prosecutor’s office (Hauts-de-Seine) carried out the first investigations in order to preserve any incriminating evidence. Achraf Hakimi was indicted on Thursday for rape after being taken into police custody, we learned on Friday. The PSG player is the subject of an investigation, opened after the deposition of a young woman last weekend, who has since been heard at length by the police officers of the departmental security of 92, in charge of the investigation.
As Le Parisien had revealed, a 24-year-old young woman presented herself on Sunday February 26 at the Nogent-sur-Marne police station (Val-de-Marne), where she told the police that she had been raped by Achraf Hakimi , the right side of Paris Saint-Germain, also 24 years old. The alleged victim, residing in Fontenay-sous-Bois (Val-de-Marne), had indicated that he did not wish to file a complaint, but “to make a statement of rape”, according to a source close to the investigation.
The Créteil prosecutor’s office first took up the case before forwarding it to that of Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine), the facts having taken place in Boulogne-Billancourt, at the player’s home.
The facts would have taken place the night of February 25
It all started on January 6, when a discussion broke out between Achraf Hakimi and the young woman, via the Instagram social network on which she is very present. On Friday February 25, at night, the young woman would have gone to the player’s home in Boulogne, aboard an Uber that the PSG side would have ordered from her.
This is where things got out of hand, according to a source close to the investigation. The Moroccan international allegedly kissed her on the mouth, and kissed her breasts through her clothes despite her protests. According to his version, the sportsman would have committed a digital penetration despite, again, his protests.
The alleged victim finally managed to free himself from his attacker by pushing him away with his foot. Released, she would then have sent an SMS to a friend who came to pick her up. The passage of the alleged victim to the player’s home would not have lasted more than an hour, according to the same source.
Hakimi’s lawyer denounces an “attempted racketeering”
Despite the player’s denials, he was indicted for rape. According to our information, the testimony of the friend of the alleged victim, who came to pick her up, would substantiate her accusations. In addition, the young woman would have provided investigators with text messages that she sent to the same friend after the fact. These would attest to his trauma after the alleged rape.

She does not in any way wish to contribute to the media coverage of the case, in particular to preserve her safety ”.
Me Fanny Colin, the player’s lawyer, denounced this Friday in a press release that we were able to consult an “attempted racketeering”. “After the few hours of hearing, I remember for my part that the whistleblower refused to file a complaint, refused to submit to the slightest medical or psychological examination and refused to be confronted with Achraf Hakimi, even though the accusation rests exclusively on his words,” she wrote. The lawyer assured Le Parisien on Tuesday that the accusations “were false” and that Achraf Hakimi, “serene”, was “at the disposal of justice”.
The player separated from his wife
This weekend, the right side was obviously alone at home. According to our information, he would be separated from his wife with whom he had two children for a few months.
After learning of this information, PSG united behind his executive and showed him his support. “The club is in support of the player who has firmly denied the accusations and trusts justice. PSG is an institution that promotes respect on and off the pitch. »
The information of the indictment of the Moroccan international, this Friday at the end of the morning, fell at the very moment when he entered the lawn of the Camp des Loges to train with PSG, which faces Nantes on Saturday in the League. 1.
