Achraf Hakimi, the star of Paris Saint-Germain and the Moroccan national team, broke his silence today regarding the referral of his case to the criminal court in France, affirming his complete rejection of the accusations against him.

The French prosecutor in Nanterre announced this morning that Achraf Hakimi was referred to the criminal court on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, on charges of rape in France, following judicial investigations that began in March 2023 based on an accusation from a young woman against him.

On his account on the X app, the player said: "Today, an accusation of rape is enough to justify a trial, even though I completely deny it and all the evidence proves it false. This injustice affects the innocent as much as it affects the real victims. I will await this trial calmly for the truth to be revealed publicly."

The response reflects Hakimi's firm stance on his innocence and his readiness to face the judiciary to prove it, while the case remains under trial following investigations that have been ongoing since March 2023.
