Manchester City football player Benjamin Mendy was found not guilty of six counts of rape and one count of sexual assault at Chester Crown Court, an official from Chester Crown Court confirmed to CNN.
The court official told CNN that jurors were unable to reach verdicts on one count of rape and another of attempted rape in Mendy’s trial, which began in August 2022. The official added that Mendy will face a retrial in June over the one count of rape and one count of attempted rape the jury could not decide on. Mendy’s friend and co-accused, Louis Saha Matturie, was found not guilty of three counts of rape.
These counts arose from separate incidents: the first in 2018 and the second in 2020. The unanimous not guilty verdicts were delivered on Wednesday but could not be reported until the jury had concluded deliberating on the two remaining charges Mendy faces.
