Ex-PSG player arrested over assault

Former Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) midfielder, Aminata Diallo, has been re-arrested over her alleged connection to ex-team-mate Kheira Hamraoui’s assault.

The Versailles public prosecutor’s office disclosed that Diallo was taken into custody on Friday morning as part of the investigation into the assault, which occurred in November 2021.

Hamraoui, in 2021, was dragged by two hooded individuals from a car driven by Diallo, who was pinned down but not seriously injured.

Diallo was arrested in the same month on suspicion of arranging the attack but released after 36 hours as charges were not filed against her.

Diallo’s lawyer stated that the former PSG midfielder had nothing to do with the incident.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday and Thursday, four men were arrested in connection with the assault.
