A Paris court has sentenced in absentia Swiss Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan to 18 years in prison for the rape of three women.
On Wednesday evening, the former Oxford University professor was found guilty of all three counts that took place between 2009 and 2016, marking his latest fall from grace.
Ramadan has continuously denied the allegations brought to the French court but later admitted to having had contact with the women.
… However, since Switzerland does not extradite its citizens to other countries, it is unclear how the well-known academic will be brought to justice.
