Reports in France say that Hayet Abidal, the wife of former FC Barcelona player and sporting director Eric Abidal, is now a suspect in the beating of Kheira Hamraoui, who plays for Paris Saint-Germain’s women’s section.
Hamraoui was beaten on her arms and legs by iron rods outside a restaurant in Paris on November 4th. Her teammate and friend, Aminata Diallo, was first suspected, but it seems the police are now looking elsewhere.
According to reports, the victim has blamed Hayet specifically. She is said to have had a conversation with Eric over the phone the day after it occurred.
