French Olympic swimming champion Yannick Agnel will stand trial on charges of rape and sexual assault on the 13-year-old daughter of his former coach, the prosecutor general’s office in Colmar said Thursday.
The prosecutor general's office confirmed that the investigative chamber of the Colmar appeals court ordered Agnel, 33, to go on trial since he was an adult at the time of the alleged acts. He has 10 days to appeal to France’s top court, the Court of Cassation.
