An appeals court in France has cleared Congolese music star Koffi Olomidé of sexually assaulting four of his former dancers, but convicted him of holding the women against their will. (Read More Here).
The court overturned a 2019 ruling that found him guilty of the statutory rape of one of the dancers when she was 15. But he was convicted of depriving the women of their liberty at a villa in Paris between 2002 and 2006, BBC reports.
He is to serve an 18-month sentence and pay a fine of 10,000-32,000 euros ($11,000-36,000) to each dancer. The singer has, however, filed an appeal against the sentence.
