Like French star Benjamin Mendy, player Manchester City The Englishman, before the British court in a new session in the case of his involvement in a moral assault against women who complained about him months ago, but the surprise was that the judge mentioned the name of the Algerian international Riyad Mahrez to be a party to the case.
Journalist Jack Gauguin stated in the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, as present at the session, that Mahrez’s name was mentioned along with the names of other players, including defenders Kiel Walker and Stones, as well as strikers Jack Grealish and Rahim Sterling.
Potential jurors in the Benjamin Mendy trial heard the names of Sterling, Grealish, Walker, Mahrez and Stones when people who could be referred to the case – or called as a witness – were listed in court today.

These players were mentioned without talking about their real role in the case, but the laws indicate that naming people at this stage makes them parties that can be referred to the judiciary and even the possibility of their involvement with Mindy, or witnesses, the purpose of their presence in court is to listen to them.
Mindy faces 8 charges after the British judiciary received complaints from women who claimed that they had been assaulted by him, and he remained in prison for a long time before being released, but under judicial supervision and his obligation to attend all sessions accompanied by his lawyer.
