Senior prosecutor Ms. Chirakova, who headed the preliminary investigation, found the evidence “insufficient for further proceedings and the investigation is therefore closed.”
According to reports, the alleged rape and two cases of sexual harassment occurred on October 10 at a hotel in the Swedish capital.
Several Swedish media outlets, including the newspapers Aftonbladet and Expressen and public broadcaster SVT, named Mbappé as a suspect.
At that time he was visiting Stockholm.
Police were seen visiting the Bank Hotel where he was staying and officers later left with the bags. One report says they took clothing from the hotel as evidence.
On Sunday, speaking about the case for the first time on the French television program Clique, Mbappé said he was “not involved in it.”
“I didn’t receive anything, no summons… I’m not involved.”
