Witnesses intimidated by Kylian Mbappé!

The weeks pass and the rape case targeting Kylian Mbappé following his visit to Stockholm in mid-October seems to have reached an impasse. Consequence of the absolute silence maintained by the Swedish justice system regarding the case. A habit in the Scandinavian country. “It just means that the people in charge of this case, and in particular the prosecutor, are doing their job well and respecting their duty of confidentiality”told 20Minutes Me Pernilla Dahlrot Cabouillet, lawyer and member of the bar in Paris and Sweden, emphasizing
“the very high level of morality” in the country.

But if the Swedish justice system has remained completely silent since the start of the affair, it has been different for the local press. Expressen and Aftonbladet, the country's two main dailies, then the television channel TV4 News, quickly revealed that the complainant, who was among the many young women to have spent the evening with Kylian Mbappé and his friends, had specifically accused the former Monegasque.

The notoriety of Kylian Mbappé is difficult for witnesses

The Swedish media did not stop there, multiplying the revelations on the course of the evening of Kylian Mbappé and his gang, between the dinner at the Chez Jolie restaurant, the bowling game, the trip to the V*** club ** and the after party at the Bank Hotel, first at Sophie, the establishment's secret bar, then in the suite of the former Monegasque. But according to Johanna Franden, a journalist for AftonBladet based in France, it is not easy to collect testimonies. Blame it on the fear inspired by the French world champion.

« We got a testimony from one of the girls present at the party but the others don't want to talk. I have the impression that everyone is a little afraid because you don't know what you risk by accusing a star like that, full of lawyers,
confided the journalist. It's such a sensitive issue that everyone is very careful. This is often the case in rape cases, but even more so if we are talking about a player of the notoriety of Kylian Mbappé. “
