Tariq Ramadan silenced his victim by 27 thousand euro
Tariq Ramadan, the grandson of Hassan al-Banna, the
founder of Muslim Brotherhood, who detained in France over rape allegations,
paid a woman to stay silent about their relationship in 2015, the Belgian
judiciary said.
Ramadan, 55, paid the Belgian-Moroccan woman €27,000
to stop posting details about their affair online.
Al-Banna’s grandson was detained by a French court
in February over charges that he raped two Muslim women in France. A third
woman has since made further allegations of rape. Ramadan denies all the
charges.
A public judgment was made in Brussels in May 2015
between the professor and the woman, Majda Bernoussi, after she posted online
about his "psychological grip" on her.
The agreement "provides that Majda Bernoussi
deletes her online posts and stops publishing new ones, for a sum of money
given by Tariq Ramadan,".
Bernoussi also agreed to no longer send
"offensive or threatening messages" to Ramadan and his family.
Ramadan's two accusers in France went to the police
in late October, both alleging that he had raped them in French hotel rooms.
