The incident allegedly took place in 2023. A woman reportedly visited the footballer at his home after he called a taxi for her.

The prosecution alleges that the "situation escalated" and Hakimi began kissing the woman, undressing her, and touching her despite her protests. He is also accused of digital penetration.

Colin stated that she is "confident" about a potential trial and questioned the alleged victim's account, describing it as "inconsistent".

“In 99.9% of rape or sexual assault cases, a psychological evaluation is carried out, which establishes the presence of symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.

This can manifest as sleep problems, weight gain or loss. In this case, there is nothing like that,” Colin emphasised, as reported by Sportal.
