It is a symbol of the embarrassment generated by the placement in police custody of Aminata Diallo as part of the investigation into the attack on her teammate Kheira Hamraoui. The press conference scheduled for Friday before the clash between Olympique Lyonnais and Paris Saint-Germain has been canceled, as Europe 1 learned on Thursday noon. The capital club is trying to control the communication around this affair as well as possible, but it does not stop shaking French women’s football.
An ex-companion who allegedly ordered the attack
Aminata Diallo, who denies the facts, is still in custody. She is therefore suspected of having ordered the attack, last Thursday, of her comrade Kheira Hamraoui. If she has to be brought before a judge, it will be Friday morning, added a judicial source. A second person is in custody, a 34-year-old man in prison in Lyon for racketeering and acts of torture and barbarity. He was interviewed by the judicial police.
According to the newspaper The Team, this individual would be an acquaintance of Aminata Diallo. He is suspected of having anonymously contacted four Paris Saint-Germain players from his cell claiming to have had a relationship with Kheira Hamraoui for three years. A story that would have shattered his life, hence his desire for revenge. He denies being the author of this violent attack.
According to Parisian which confirms information from RMC, another PSG player, Sakina Karchaoui, is also heard by the police, without being taken into custody. The footballer was present in the car and was the first to get out, yet against the logic of the journey.
Several stitches for Hamraoui
Last Thursday, a hooded stranger beat Kheira Hamraoui with an iron bar, targeting his legs, which are his work tool. The 31-year-old suffers from sores on her hands and legs; she had several stitches put in. This case recalls the aggression suffered by skater Nancy Kerrigan at the Olympic Games in Lillehammer in 1994. Tonya Harding, helped by her husband and his bodyguard, had orchestrated an attack with an iron bar on her rival.
