He was found guilty on all three charges by a dissenting magistrate on Friday afternoon.
Nigerian professional footballer, Akinkunmi Amoo, has been sentenced to one-year imprisonment for sexual assault by the District Court in Denmark.
The 21-year-old footballer, who plays as a winger for F.C. Copenhagen in the Danish Superliga, was convicted on Friday 23 2023.
Akinkunwmi’s woe started in September 2022 when he was arrested in Denmark for sexual assault, but he was released on bail in October.
He was thereafter charged to court and stood trial on three counts of rape in a sexual relationship other than intercourse, attempted rape, and violations of two more women.
He was found guilty on all three charges by a dissenting magistrate on Friday afternoon, and was sentenced to one-year imprisonment. He was also reportedly slammed with a six-year entry ban to Denmark.
Akinkunmi is said to be ready to appeal the judgment but the date when the appeal will commence has not been made public yet.
