PARIS (AP) — In a story published March 3, 2023, about a rape investigation involving Paris Saint-German player Achraf Hakimi, The Associated Press referred to Hakimi being indicted. A more accurate explanation of the action he faced under French law is that he was given preliminary charges. In the French legal system, this step means that investigating judges have strong reason to suspect wrongdoing but allows time for further investigation.
