The French Kylian Mbappé still reserves his word to the Swedish justice in case of a summons from the latter.
Kylian Mbappé, is, according to the Swedish press, accused of rape after a young woman's complaint on Saturday, October 12, according to facts that allegedly took place on October 10 in Stockholm. After launching a “FAKE NEWS” on social networks, the Frenchman would indeed be the person targeted by the complaint, his entourage would be certain of it as indicated by RMC Sport. According to information from the Swedish newspaper Expressen, the French player is considered “reasonably suspicious” in this case. This is the lowest level of suspicion in Swedish criminal law, but according to which concrete circumstances suggest that a person has committed the acts he is accused of.
According to Le Parisien, the player would not understand the accusations even if he admitted to a sexual relationship with a young woman. He could rely on written messages testifying to a “happy meeting and a consensual relationship” after the young woman left the hotel. But there is nothing to say for the moment that this young woman is indeed the complainant who presented herself to the police a few hours later.
On the sidelines of his day off, Kylian Mbappé went to Stockholm to celebrate the birthday of one of his close friends in style. Nordi Mukiele, Mbappé's former teammate, took charge of the organization. The latter used the services of a luxury concierge, a certain Marco D. The trip included two nights at the Bank Hotel, a luxury establishment with discreet charm. The man also works as a “consultant” at the V club, a nightclub located in the center of the Swedish capital. In this context, Marco D. offers his privileged clients to privatize part of the premises by promising them the exclusive company of young women invited according to essentially aesthetic criteria. Depending on the rapprochements that take place on the dance floor, anything can then happen.

But on Thursday, October 17, the player's lawyer told AFP that Kylian Mbappé “keeps the primacy of his explanations” for the Swedish justice system, should it request it, and also “firmly denouncing the media allegations suggesting that Kylian Mbappé has spoken out about the course of his trip to Stockholm”.
But what does the Frenchman risk ? “When the suspicions are strong enough, we can start to consider questioning the suspect,” explained the prosecutor in charge of the case. “In some cases, the suspect's testimony is credible and the investigation can then be abandoned immediately,” the prosecutor also explained. Furthermore, when the suspect is in another EU country and refuses or is unable to travel there, he or she may be questioned by the local police. If the case is confirmed and goes to trial, in Sweden, rape is punishable by a prison sentence of between three and six years. But for the time being Kylian Mbappé would still be considered “reasonably suspicious” and this qualification rarely results in pre-trial detention. New elements could lead to developments in the investigation after the analysis of the clothes seized by the police, in particular, the complainant's pants and underwear. Searches also reportedly took place on Saturday, October 19, with plainclothes police officers who went to the hotel, accompanied by technicians to collect evidence. They visited the suite reserved by the player before following a sort of guided tour to trace precisely the places frequented in the establishment.

Swedish media Aftonbladet has gathered the confidences of a young woman who allegedly attended Kylian Mbappé's two private parties during his stay in Stockholm. “I've already attended similar parties of his and I've never had to hand over my phone. “It was the first time,” says “Maja,” who adds that “a lot of girls were nervous because it was him.” “It was really a normal party. Nothing special happens, everyone walks around, mingle and talk. The waitresses bring drinks, like vodka, Red Bull or tequila shots. Some people get up and dance, others talk. Just like a normal party.” While she has no information on the rest of the events and the complaint against the Frenchman, she described Mbappé as a pleasant and courteous man during those famous evenings: “I don't know Kylian, but the image I had of him was that he was always very calm, humble and well-mannered. His team was constantly monitoring him. That's my point of view and if it's false accusations I'm really sorry for him, but again if something really happened it's terrible.”
