Spartak Moscow And Quincy Promes Charged With Attempted Murder
Spartak Moscow and Netherlands footballer Quincy Promes will be charged and prosecuted for attempted manslaughter and assault after stabbing a family member last year.
Promes has accusations levelled against him, precisely seriously injuring a relative's knee in an attack at a family party in July 2020.
The unidentified relative suffered serious knee injuries and filed a complaint with the police last November.
The 29-year-old midfielder was arrested and held in custody for two nights while police interrogated him over the incident last December.
The Dutch International has not claimed any wrongdoing and denied the allegations.
Promes, who played for Ajax in the Netherlands between 2019 and 2021, has been named as the suspect in Dutch media reports.
Prosecutors on Thursday said they had decided to bring forward charges of attempted manslaughter and assault against a 29-year-old from Amsterdam and further claimed the incident happened at a family party in Abcoude, a town just outside Amsterdam.
Dutch national broadcaster NOS said stabbings can be punishable by prison sentences of 24 to 42 months.
The date of the court hearing is yet to be determined.
