The French Kylian Mbappé always reserves his word to the Swedish justice system in the event of the latter being summoned.
Kylian Mbappéis, according to the Swedish press, accused of rape after the complaint of a young woman on Saturday October 12 according to events which took place on October 10 near Stockholm. After launching a “FAKE NEWS” on social networks, the Frenchman would indeed be the person targeted by the complaint, those around him would be certain of this as indicated by RMC Sport. According to information from the Swedish newspaper Expressen, the French player is considered “reasonably suspect” in this case. This is the lowest level of suspicion in Swedish criminal law, but under which concrete circumstances suggest that a person has committed the acts of which he is accused.
According to Le Parisien, the player would not understand the accusations even if he admitted to a sexual relationship with a young woman. He could rely on written messages testifying to “a happy meeting and a consensual relationship” after the young woman’s departure from the hotel. But there is nothing to say at this time that this young woman is indeed the complainant who presented herself to the police a few hours later.
The course of the evening
On the sidelines of his day of rest, Kylian Mbappé went to Stockholm to celebrate the birthday of one of his loved ones with dignity. Nordi Mukiele, Mbappé’s former teammate, was in charge of the organization. The latter used the services of a luxury concierge, a certain Marco D. There is talk of a trip including two nights on site at the Bank Hotel, a luxury establishment with discreet charm. The man also works as a “consultant” at the V club, a nightclub located in the center of the Swedish capital. In this context, Marco D. offers his privileged clients the opportunity to privatize part of the premises by promising them the exclusive company of young women invited according to essentially aesthetic criteria. Depending on the connections that take place on the dance floor, anything can happen.
The Swedish media Aftonbladet collected the confidences of a young woman who would have participated in Kylian Mbappé’s two private evenings during his stay in Stockholm. “I have already attended his similar parties and I never had to hand over my phone. It was the first time,” assures “Maja”, who specifies that “a lot of girls were nervous because it was him “. “It was really a normal party. Nothing special happens, everyone walks around, mixes and talks. The waitresses bring drinks, like vodka, Red Bull or tequila shots. Some people hang out get up and dance, others talk really like a normal party.” If she has no information on the sequence of events and the complaint against the Frenchman, she described Mbappé as a pleasant and courteous man during these famous evenings: “I don’t know Kylian, but the image I had about him is that he was always very calm, humble and well mannered. His team constantly monitored him. This is my point of view and if these are false accusations, I am very sorry for him. , but again, if something actually happened, it’s terrible.”
What does the French risk?
If the plaintiff’s lawyer refuses any comment, Kylian Mbappé’s lawyer has spoken several times in the French media, notably evoking the possibility of a “trap”, he who has been tracked since his arrival in Sweden. But Thursday, October 17, the player’s lawyer told AFP that Kylian Mbappé “keeps the primacy of his explanations” for the Swedish justice system, in the event that it requests him, also denouncing “firmly the media allegations suggesting that Kylian Mbappé spoke about the progress of his trip to Stockholm.
But what does the French risk? “When suspicions are strong enough, we can start to consider questioning the suspect,” explained the prosecutor in charge of the case. “In certain cases, the suspect’s testimony is credible and the investigation can then be abandoned immediately” also explained the prosecutor. Furthermore, when the suspect is in another EU country and refuses or is unable to go there, he may be questioned by the local police. If the case is confirmed and comes to fruition, in Sweden, rape is punishable by a prison sentence of three to six years. But for the moment Kylian Mbappé would still be considered “reasonably suspect” and this qualification rarely leads to pre-trial detention. New elements could evolve the investigation after the analysis of the clothes seized by the police, in particular, the pants and underwear of the complainant. Searches also reportedly took place on Saturday October 19 with plainclothes police officers who went to the hotel, accompanied by technicians to collect evidence. They visited the suite reserved by the player before following a sort of guided tour to precisely retrace the places frequented in the establishment.
12:30 – Why do young women spend time with footballers?
In her interview, the young woman explains the reasons for the connections with football stars. “I understand that people raise their eyebrows. It doesn’t look very nice when it’s a party with two guys and twenty girls. But it’s not like the girls are lined up and the boys chose which one they wanted, it would have been grotesque. A lot of girls probably thought it was just fun to have the opportunity to party with Mbappé.
