Tariq Ramadan Convicted of Rape by Swiss Appeals Court
The former Oxford professor faces a three-year prison sentence after the court overturned a previous acquittal from 2023.
- Ramadan was found guilty of raping a woman in a Geneva hotel room in 2008.
- The court ruled that two years of his three-year sentence will be suspended.
- This conviction follows similar accusations against him in France, where he faces additional charges.
- Ramadan has consistently denied all allegations, claiming they are politically motivated.
- His legal team plans to appeal the conviction to Switzerland’s highest court.
