The "Squale" is not done with justice.

Indicted for rape and sexual assault on a 15-year-old minor since December 2021, for suspicion of rape of the daughter of his former trainer, Yannick Agnel is, according to concordant sources, at the heart of a second investigation carried out by the justice of Mulhouse.

About a month after the indictment of the double Olympic swimming champion, the investigating judge in charge of the case indeed asked the Mulhouse prosecution to open a supplementary indictment for acts of sexual abuse of a minor.

In question, gestures of a sexual nature on a young minor girl of her entourage.

The swimmer has not yet been heard or indicted in this second part.

He would have mentioned the existence of this story on his own.

According to our information, the facts would have taken place during an alcoholic evening, several years ago.

Yannick Agnel, then an adult, and a young girl around him would have flirted together before sharing a duvet.

It was then that the London Olympic champion allegedly touched this young girl, a minor, whose age was not specified.

The investigators of the judicial police of Mulhouse would have got wind of this relationship thanks to telephone tapping carried out within the framework of the investigations concerning the facts denounced by the daughter of Lionel Horter.

During a conversation, two relatives of Yannick Agnel would have expressed their concern about the knowledge, by the investigators, of the existence of this evening.

Asked during his police custody about other potential relationships with minors, the swimming champion would, according to someone close to the case, mentioned the existence of this story himself.

A few weeks later, the Mulhouse prosecutor's office therefore took an auxiliary to allow the judge in charge of the rape case to investigate this second fact.

At the end of December, Yannick Agnel was indicted for rape of a minor after he recognized "the materiality of the facts" concerning his relationship with Lionel Horter's daughter, then 13 years old.

The swimming champion had assured not to have had “the feeling that there was constraint”, had explained the prosecutor of the Republic of Mulhouse, Edwige Roux-Morizot.

She also specified that "if the facts constitute rape or sexual assault, it is because there is a significant age difference" between Agnel, then 24 years old, and the complainant.
