The lawyer reacted after the images of the assault of the player's wife were broadcast in the press. The couple could take legal action.

The pillar of the XV of France of rugby Mohamed Haouas was sentenced to one year in prison Tuesday in Montpellier for domestic violence. The criminal court did not follow the prosecutor, who had requested a total of 18 months with a warrant of committal and therefore continued detention against the MHR player. He was tried for hitting his wife on Friday, after he saw her smoking a cigarette in front of the shopping center.
