Sweden's Prosecution Authority on Tuesday confirmed a rape investigation, without naming a suspect, following media reports that French footballer Kylian Mbappe was being investigated after a visit to Stockholm.
"Given media reports of a suspected rape in Stockholm, the prosecutor can confirm that a rape complaint has been filed with police," the authority said, adding that the alleged incident occurred at a hotel in the Swedish capital on October 10.
