Egyptian Olympic wrestler Mohamed ‘Kesho’ Ibrahim has been arrested in Paris for allegedly sexual assault.

A statement by the Paris prosecutor’s office said, “On August 9 around 5am, a man born in March 1998 in Egypt who was a wrestler in the Olympic delegation was arrested in front of the Oz Cafe.”

The Egyptian wrestler was arrested for allegedly touching the buttocks of another customer at the cafe.

The Egyptian Olympic Committee (EOC) named Kesho, who won a bronze medal at the Tokyo 2020 Games, as the team member who had been arrested.

The EOC added that Kesho will be investigated by its ethics committee and could face a life ban from competition if found guilty.

“If the allegations are substantiated, the wrestler will face permanent suspension and will be barred from participating in both domestic and international competitions,” it said.

Kesho was beaten by Azerbaijan’s Hasrat Jafarov in the first round of the men’s 67kg Greco-Roman wrestling on Wednesday.

The EOC said he had been given permission to leave the Egyptian camp to watch the final of his weight category but failed to return and turned off his phone.
