More Details on Hulk Hogan's Death Revealed
Rana Atef On Friday, new medical reports revealed further details about the death of global wrestling legend and reality TV star Hulk Hogan, who passed away last week at the age of 71. According to documents reviewed by the Los Angeles Times, Hogan died from an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). The Clearwater Police Department in Florida confirmed it had responded to a cardiac arrest call on the morning of July 24, after which Hogan was transported to the hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. The report also noted that Hogan had been suffering from atrial fibrillation as well as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)—a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. Authorities confirmed he had received formal approval for cremation. Hogan rose to superstardom in the 1980s after signing with WWE, becoming not just a wrestling icon but a pop culture phenomenon. His legacy extended to film and television, with notable appearances in The A-Team, Walker, Texas Ranger, and his hit reality series Hogan Knows Best. In later years, Hogan became a political figure, emerging as a vocal supporter of the US President Donald Trump. He delivered a headline-making speech at the 2024 Republican National Convention. Trump mourned the loss on his social media platform, writing: 'Today we lost a great friend... The Hulkster was strong, brave, and brilliant—but also had a big heart. His cultural impact will remain immense.' WWE, US Vice President J.D. Vance, and several veteran wrestlers also paid tribute. Hogan's children, Nick and Brooke, shared heartfelt messages. Nick called him 'the best father and friend in the world,' while Brooke wrote, 'My bond with my father never broke—even in his final moments. He believed meeting God would be the greatest championship of all.' read more Japan Stun Spain 2-1 to Qualify for World Cup Last 16 World Cup 2022: Get to Know Confirmed Line-ups of Japan and Spain Group E Decider Saudi Arabia Bid Farewell to World Cup after 2-1 Loss to Mexico Tunisia Achieve Historic Win over France but Fail to Qualify Tunisia to Clash against France in World Cup Sports Get to Know Squad of Group D Teams in World Cup Sports Al Ahly Gift EGP 70,000 to Players After Claiming Egyptian Super Cup Title Sports Bencharki Hits First 2 Goals with Al Jazira Since Leaving Zamalek Sports Arsenal Possible Line-up for Nottingham Forest News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Prosecutors call for Morocco's Achraf Hakimi to face rape trial - Africa
French prosecutors on Friday called for Paris Saint-Germain star Achraf Hakimi to face trial for the alleged rape of a woman in 2023 which the Moroccan international denies. The Nanterre prosecutor's office told AFP that they had requested that the investigating judge refer the rape charge to a criminal court. "It is now up to the investigating magistrate to make a decision within the framework of his order," the prosecutor's office told AFP in a statement. Hakimi, 26, played a major role in PSG's run to their first Champions League title, the full-back scoring the opener in the 5-0 rout of Inter Milan in the final in May. Hakimi, who helped Morocco to their historic run to the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup, was charged in March, 2023 with raping a 24-year-old woman. Hakimi allegedly paid for his accuser to travel to his home on February 25, 2023, in the Paris suburb of Boulogne-Billancourt while his wife and children were away on holiday. The woman went to a police station following the encounter alleging rape and was questioned by police. Although the woman refused to make a formal accusation, prosecutors decided to press charges against the player. She told police at the time that she had met Hakimi in January 2023 on Instagram. On the night in question she said she had travelled to his house in a taxi paid for by Hakimi. She told police Hakimi had started kissing her and making non consensual sexual advances, before raping her, a police source told AFP at the time. She said she managed to break free to text a friend who came to pick her up. Contacted by AFP after Friday's development Hakimi's lawyer Fanny Colin described the call by prosecutors for a trial as "incomprehensible and senseless in light of the case's elements". "We, along with Achraf Hakimi, remain as calm as we were at the start of the proceedings. "If these requisitions were to be followed, we would obviously pursue all avenues of appeal," she added. "My client welcomes this news with immense relief," Rachel-Flore Pardo, the lawyer representing the woman, told AFP. Hakimi, born in Madrid, came through the youth system at Real Madrid before joining Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund in 2018. He went on to make 73 appearances for the German club. He moved to Inter Milan in 2020 and then on to PSG in 2021 where he has established himself as an integral part of the team. In Qatar, Hakimi was a cornerstone of the Morocco team that became the first African or Arab nation to reach the semi-finals of a World Cup.
