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.
