Ex-Man City player Benjamin Mendy acquitted of UK sex offences.

A British court has found former Manchester City football player Benjamin Mendy not guilty of one count of rape and one of attempted rape.

Earlier this year, he had also been found not guilty of six counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.

“Benjamin Mendy would like to thank the members of the jury for focusing on the evidence in this trial, rather than on the rumour that has followed this case from the outset,” Mendy’s solicitor said in a statement.

“This is the second time that Mr Mendy has been tried and found not guilty by a jury. He is delighted that both juries reached the correct verdicts.”

Mendy had denied the charges and said the incidents were consensual encounter.

Full of emotions, he only had one word, “Alhamdulillah”.
