The charges against Moha La Squale did not remain confined to social networks.
On Monday, the Paris prosecutor's office opened an investigation for "violence", "sexual assault" and "kidnapping" after three women aged 23 to 28 filed a complaint against the 25-year-old rapper, according to information from Point and by BFMTV.
The investigation was entrusted to the first judicial police district.
"There are a total of six victims, including three with a known identity" who lodged a complaint Monday evening at the 9th arrondissement police station, said a source familiar with the matter.
The other three should file a complaint in turn soon, according to this source.
Any other complaints to come?
“There are similarities in the stories these young women shared.
In particular on the fact that they were, at one time, locked in a housing, explains to 20 Minutes Thibault Stumm, the lawyer of the young women.
For two of the complainants, the facts go back two years.
They would date only a few months for the third.
The plaintiffs "provided the police with rather long testimonies" and "the hearings ended this (Tuesday) morning early", explained the lawyer.
Since Sunday, Moha La Squale, whose real name is Mohamed Bellahmed, has been targeted on social networks by accusations of sexual violence and threats from several young women, some of whom have expressed their willingness to file a complaint.
Arrested last June in Paris
The rapper must also be tried in March for an aggravated refusal to comply, contempt of a person holding public authority and rebellion.
He was arrested in June following a routine traffic check, the police having noted that he was the subject of a search warrant for a "motorcycle rodeo" a month earlier.
The images of his arrest in the 18th arrondissement of Paris had been around social networks.
The rapper was one of the big revelations of the year 2018 with his first album "Bendero", acclaimed by the public (gold record, more than 50,000 copies sold) and by the critics.
Nominated for the Victoires de la musique 2019, the charismatic artist with long hair, passed by the Cours Florent, was spotted with "freestyles" posted on Facebook and YouTube, where we see him rapping in his kitchen or in his neighborhood from "La Banane" to Ménilmontant, in the 20th arrondissement.
He already told the street, his daily life and his life before when he was a drug dealer or in prison.
