Wissam Ben Yedder Receives Suspended Sentence for Sexual Assault

The former Monaco striker was sentenced to two years with a suspended jail term after being found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman while intoxicated.

The incident occurred on September 6, 2024, when Ben Yedder, under the influence of alcohol, assaulted a 23-year-old woman in his car.
Ben Yedder was also convicted of driving while intoxicated and received a six-month suspension of his driving license.
The court in Nice ordered Ben Yedder to pay €5,000 in compensation to the victim and mandated him to undergo treatment.
Despite admitting to the driving offense, Ben Yedder claims no recollection of the assault due to his inebriated state.
This case is part of broader legal troubles for Ben Yedder, who faces additional charges, including a pending trial for psychological violence against his wife.
