International Musician Koffi Oloumide Has Been Jailed For 2 Years By A French Court

International music star, Antoine Christophe Agbepa Mumba a.k.a. Koffi Olomide was handed a two years suspended jail sentence by a court in France for raping a 15 year-old girl.







He was sentenced in absentia as he was a no show.

This sentence means that the 62 year-old music composer, producer and singer faces an arrest if he commits further offenses, according to BBC.

The graduate of Business Economic and pioneer of the soukous genre was ordered by the court to pay a fine of 5,000 Euros ($5,700; £4,300) in damages to the former dancer.

He was also ordered to pay the same amount to the court for illegally bringing three women into France.

Reports also stated that Olomide’s lawyer, Emmanuel Marsigny, hailed the ruling as a victory that it would result in the withdrawal of the star’s international arrest warrant.

The Kisangani born artist in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) was accused of raping a young lady between 2002 and 2006 after it was alleged that he seized her passport.

He went on trial after four former dancers claimed he s#xually assaulted them several times between 2002 and 2006.

The assaults allegedly happened in the DRC as well as in France, including at a villa outside Paris where the women said they were held against their will.

The dancers said they managed to make a night-time escape from the villa in June 2006, and have not returned to their country since for fear of reprisals.

Prosecutors at his trial in Nanterre, outside Paris, had sought a seven-year prison sentence but the court dismissed the assault and kidnapping charges.

The Master Degree holder in Mathematics was first charged in 2012 with aggravated rape but the charges were subsequently reduced.

Facing a French arrest warrant, he fled to DR Congo in 2009 but had initially said he would appear at the trial to defend himself.

Olomide, however, failed to show for the trial last month, which was held behind closed doors at the women’s request.

  2. Koffi and awilo longomba were the raves of my childhood and were two giants of the Makossa wave then


    But this news is just disgusting to read....how is a paedophile still walking free and be considered bail and just an option not to commit any more crime before he can be arrested? Or is this not similar or worse to r kelly ordeal?

  5. He will not be jailed, it is a suspended sentence and he will pay 5000 dollars to the 3 girls.
    The girls were not raped, the dancers were 16 years and that is the normal age most girls from poor homes do. He takes them abroad where most of them abscond and ask for asylum. Now, they had to come with a plan, just like Nigerians claim gay, congolese claim war and the ladies had to claim rape and kidnap. What is true is that, he dates them and other musicians too sleep with them. For them not to abscond abroad, he locks them in the apartment he rents each time they travel, they only come out to shop, go for concerts where they work and make money. Unfortunately for koffi, they run off without him knowing.

  6. No be today na. E don tey. He sleeps with almost all his dancers, to think that he has a very beautiful wife. Remembered when a video of his daughter giving a BJ surfaced online, baba rant like mad, he's so protective of his daughter but will be raping other people's own. Nonsense!
