Rugby: Mohamed Haouas tried for domestic violence in Montpellier

Mohamed Haouas, the pillar of the XV of France of rugby, will be judged in immediate appearance, Tuesday, May 30, at the court of Montpellier (Hérault). Incarcerated since Friday for acts of domestic violence, the French international is accused of having hit the mother of his two children in the middle of the street. The player risks up to three years in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros. The Minister of Sports spoke out to denounce the actions of the player.

A player already known to justice

One more case for a player subscribed to the news item section. In 2022, he received an 18-month suspended prison sentence for his role in burglaries in 2014. On May 12, 2023, he appeared again for aggravated violence, for acts also committed in 2014. But on the ground, Mohamed Haouas was also talked about for two red cards received during the Six Nations Tournament, for bad gestures. For the time being, the France team does not wish to speak, and remains suspended for the deliberation of the trial scheduled for June 30. Four months before the World Cup in France, his future seems increasingly uncertain.
