Tariq Ramadan was sentenced on February 3, 2022 on appeal to a fine for having given the real name of the woman who presents herself in the media as “Christelle” and accuses her of having raped her in a hotel room in Lyon in 2009. The Paris Court of Appeal confirmed the judgment of November 2020 and reduced the sentences.

On February 7, 2023, the Court of Cassation rejected Tariqu Ramadan's appeal. He then filed an application before the European Court of Human Rights. The Court located in Strasbourg declared the application manifestly ill-founded and therefore inadmissible.
