The preliminary investigation against soccer player Kylian Mbappé regarding suspected rape in Stockholm is closed due to lack of evidence. This is what the Public Prosecutor’s Office writes in a press release.

The investigation concerned a suspected rape and two cases of sexual harassment at a hotel in central Stockholm on 10 October.

– During the course of the investigation, there has been a designated person reasonably suspected of rape and two cases of sexual harassment, but my assessment is that the evidence is not sufficient to proceed further and the investigation is therefore closed. The designated person has not been served with suspicion of crime, says prosecutor Marina Chirakova, who was the head of the preliminary investigation, in the press release.
