BENJAMIN Mendy will face a retrial for rape as he’s hauled back to court. The Manchester City star, 28, will face a three-week trial starting June 26. The French international was today found…
During a six-month trial, jurors were told the left-back lured young women into “toxic and dangerous” situations at his six-bedroom Cheshire home.
Co-defendant Louis Saha Matturie acted as Mendy’s “fixer” by getting girls as young as 17 to attend the lockdown-busting parties after nights spent in the VIP sections of clubs drinking £1,500 bottles of Champagne, it was said. Some of his victims claimed their phones were taken away from them on arrival leaving them unable to call for help.But his lawyer Eleanor Laws KC told jurors to end Mendy's "absolute hell" and acquit him.
She said claims he used his fame to attack women - with the prosecution comparing him to Jimmy Savile - were "utterly ridiculous".The club said: "Manchester City FC notes the verdict from Chester Crown Court today, where a jury has found Benjamin Mendy not guilty of seven charges."Given there are open matters related to this case, the club is not in a position to comment further at this time.
