1. What Happens In Zanzibar.....
Description
Maisie Adam introduces the story of a brutal attack at Paris Saint-Germain that turned close teammates into bitter rivals just months after a holiday in paradise together.
Aminata Diallo and Kheira Hamraoui, both French international midfielders at PSG, one of the biggest clubs in world football, appeared to be the best of friends. In the summer of 2021 they spent a vacation together in Zanzibar on the coast of East Africa, ahead of the new season.
Yet within months Diallo would be arrested, accused of involvement in organising an attack on Hamraoui that targeted her legs in a deliberate attempt to cause serious injury.
So who is Aminata Diallo? And why do the police believe she is guilty? And who is Kheira Hamraoui? And why has she become a target to be attacked in this way?
Was this assault motivated by jealousy and ruthless career ambition on the part of Diallo? Or is it connected to Hamraoui's soon-to-be-exposed private life? And could this even be a potential miscarriage of justice? The investigation starts here...
With the case still to come to court this is the chance to hear evidence from those close to Diallo and Hamraoui – and make your own mind up. Like all good crime dramas, in this series we'll be examining the means, the motive and the opportunity.
