Kofi Olomide to spend 18 months in prison for kidnapping.

Congolese music legend Koffi Olomide has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for the kidnapping of his former dancers by an appeal court in France. Koffie Olomide was acquitted of his sexual assault charges. On Monday, December 13, the court in Versailles overturned a 2019 ruling over a rape charge of one of the dancers and gave him the new sentence, which has been suspended for three years. According to BBC, the singer was also cleared of sexually assaulting four of his ex dancers - former members of his Quartier Latin band. The female dancers had accused Koffi of sexual assault and kidnapping between 2002 and 2006 at a villa in AsniÃ¨res, Paris.
