France: Paris St. Germain’s owner, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, is facing a civil lawsuit following allegations made against him by Tayeb Benabderrahmane.
Benabderrahmane accuses Al-Khelaifi of deprivation of liberty, torture, and kidnapping during his stay in Qatar in January 2020.
According to reports, the Frenchman with Algerian roots was detained in Qatar and was only allowed to leave the country in November 2020 after making a written commitment not to disclose any sensitive information from his time there.
The public prosecutor’s office in Paris has taken on the case, and Al-Khelaifi’s lawyers have declined to comment.
The incident has added to the woes of PSG, which is struggling in sports, having been knocked out of the cup and facing a difficult challenge in the Champions League.
