Ex-Ivory Coast Star Aboulaye Traoré Jailed for Three Years in Rape Conviction
Legendary Ivorian striker Aboulaye Traoré has been sentenced to three years in prison after a Bouaké court found him guilty of rape. The Ivorian League for Women’s Rights said the court also ordered a payment of 15 million CFA francs to the victim and imposed a five-year ban on Traoré from the central region. Traoré was convicted of non-consensual relations with a 21-year-old woman in March 2021. He led the Elephants to the 1992 African Cup of Nations title and scored 49 goals in 90 appearances before retiring in 1996.
