On his Twitter account, Pinot posted a photo of his swollen face and three messages.
“During the night from Saturday to Sunday, I was the victim of an assault at my home by my companion and trainer, writes the Olympic mixed team champion at the Tokyo Olympics. I was insulted, punched, my head hit the ground several times. And finally strangled. “
“I thought I was dying, she continues. I have several injuries including a broken nose and 10 days of temporary work stoppage. Today justice has decided to release him. What is their slanderous defense worth against my wounds, and the blood strewn on the floor of my apartment? What was missing? Death at the end, perhaps? It was probably judo that saved me. “
Agbégnénou scandalized
At the bar on Tuesday evening, Alain Schmitt, 38, disputed these accusations. “I didn’t put a punch or a ball on him, he had launched. These traces are the places where we bumped into. And if there are everywhere, it is because we have bumped a lot. “
The release obtained by Alain Schmitt also aroused the reaction of Clarisse Agbégnénou. “I don’t have the words to express everything that is going on in my head and my body as a woman in the face of what my teammate Margaux Pinot has suffered, published the double gold medalist at the Tokyo Olympics. All the more shocked by the court’s decision. What does it take for the sanctions to fall, death? “
For its part, the Bobigny prosecutor’s office has decided to appeal the release of Alain Schmitt.
