The French women's soccer was shaken in 2021 when it became known that PSG player, Aminata Diallo, ordered the attack on her teammate and national team player, Kheira Hamrahoui, who ended up with superficial injuries to her hands and legs that, although not serious, required stitches. This caused the player to go into shock and request private security.
After several months of investigation, Diallo was finally placed in provisional custody on September 16th after being charged with "conspiracy to commit a crime" and "aggravated assault". Meanwhile, four other suspects allegedly involved in the attack were also charged with the same crimes. Two of them were sent to prison and a third was released under judicial control.
It's worth remembering that the attack occurred when Hamrahoui was returning home from a team dinner, in a car driven by her then teammate Diallo. The former FC Barcelona player was dragged out of the car and beaten on the legs with an iron rod.
During the investigations, on Tuesday, Le Parisien newspaper revealed that French police found the following phrases in the athlete's Google search history on her phone: "how to break a kneecap" and "how to make a dangerous drug cocktail". This leads to the belief that there is a "real hatred towards her former teammate".
The same media outlet had access to medical documentation that states that Diallo "has had a slow psychological drift that has become pathological, as she considered Hamrahoui a hindrance to her own sports career", as both competed for the same position on both Paris Saint Germain and the French national team.
To make matters worse, a Whatsapp conversation was found with a message that said: "If I were mean, jealous, and calculated like her, I would tell a relative to destroy her". However, despite all these details, the 26-year-old defender continues to deny her involvement in the events and has invoked the right to remain silent while facing the legal process.
