An Egyptian wrestler participating in the Olympic Games in Paris was taken into custody by French law enforcement in the early hours of Friday, according to prosecutors. The arrest was made in connection with allegations of inappropriate physical contact with a female patron at a bar.
The Paris prosecutor's office stated that Mohamed Elsayed, aged 26, was apprehended outside a cafe in the city's 13th district around 5 am. The wrestler is accused of "placing a hand on the buttocks of a woman patron".
