Prosecutors want Djibril Cisse to be charged in sex-tape case

Paris: French prosecutors yesterday called for former Liverpool and Marseille striker Djibril Cisse to be charged with blackmail over a sex tape that cost Karim Benzema his place in France’s Euro 2016 squad, legal sources said. 


Cisse and Benzema were both arrested last year over their alleged attempt to blackmail Lyon midfielder Mathieu Valbuena with a tape of Valbuena and his girlfriend.


Cisse, who said he had merely tipped off Valbuena about the existence of the tape, was later released without charge But prosecutors in Versailles, west of Paris, insist he has a case to answer.
