A Munich court has found German footballer Jerome Boateng guilty of assaulting former partner and mother of their two children, Sherin Senler. The 30-year-old has to pay her a total of 1.8 million euros.
The incident happened in July 2018 during a joint holiday on the Turks and Caicos Islands. Boateng allegedly caused serious physical injury to Senler, which he allegedly verbally assaulted. According to the indictment, the former tracker of Bayern Munich and the German national team was to hit his girlfriend with his hand, bite her in the head and throw her on the ground, where he attacked her again. According to the DPA agency, the prosecutor’s office also sued Boateng for throwing a glass lamp and a cooling bag at the expeller.
The 30-year-old footballer denied the charges in court, saying that Senler was aggressive against him and attacked him during a conflict during a card game. Her partner was supposed to hit him, injure her on the pen, and then she fell alone as he tried to push her away. According to him, the lamp should have fallen on Senler’s accident by accident from the table into which he threw the pillow.
The applicants claimed a suspended sentence of one and a half years and a fine of EUR 1.5 million. The judgment is not yet final.
Boateng is no longer a Bayern player, leaving the Munich club after ten years in the summer and signing a two-year contract with Olympique Lyon as a free agent. The dpa agency informed.
