Eko Hot Blog reports that the defender was exonerated of six counts of rape and one count of sexual assault following a nearly five-month trial.
However, after 13 days of deliberation at Chester Crown Court, the jury was unable to make a decision on two more accusations against Mendy: one count of attempted rape in October 2018 involving a woman aged 29 and one count of rape in October 2020 involving a woman aged 24.
On the two charges where a verdict could not be reached, the Crown Prosecution Service has seven days to determine whether to pursue a retrial.
Louis Saha Matturie, Mendy’s co-accused, was found not guilty on three counts.
Six accusations against him could result in a retrial.
When Mendy was arrested in August 2021, Manchester City suspended him and ceased paying him in September.
This summer, his contract expires.
