Overview

• The indictment, reported by Swiss outlet 24 Heures, alleges a nurse in her 30s was raped twice while unconscious in an upstairs room on November 23, 2019.
• The accused is an unnamed Australian racing driver in his late 30s who was a friend of Mick Schumacher and had routine access to the property.
• Prosecutors say the nurse felt unwell after vodka cocktails following her shift, was carried to a staff room by colleagues and the defendant, and later assaulted.
• The alleged victim filed a criminal complaint in January 2022, and the man previously traveled from Australia for questioning during the investigation.
• Media reports say a trial was scheduled this week but its progress is in doubt because authorities have been unable to contact the defendant for months.
