“A sexual assault procedure against his sister is currently under investigation, without it being possible at this stage to determine whether these facts are established or not,” said the Coutances prosecutor’s office.
It also emerged that Oumar N has already been convicted five times by juvenile courts for violence and damage to property.
The 18-year-old was also previously accused of raping a minor in 2019 at a boarding school, but the case was dropped by the prosecution a year later for insufficient evidence, reports BFM-TV.
Oumar N is currently in police custody for raping and torturing the 29-year-old victim at his home in Cherbourg on August 4 in a case that sickened France.
The victim, who remains anonymous, was left naked and bleeding on the floor of her apartment before managing to reach her phone and call the doctors who rushed her to Pasteur hospital in Cherbourg.
She is still in a coma and fighting for her life 11 days after doctors operated on her serious injuries for several hours.
“The investigators are shocked, they have never seen so much barbarity,” a source familiar with the matter told Le Figaro.
Days after the ‘atrocity’, Oumar N. was arrested at his mother’s home after cops matched fingerprints left on a doorknob inside the victim’s home to the 18-year-old and tracked his phone at home at the time of the attack. .
When questioned by police, sources say Oumar N showed ‘no emotion and no empathy’ for the victim and initially denied the attack before being shown the fingerprints.
“He has a dangerous profile, he showed absolutely no emotion and no empathy for the victim,” a source familiar with the matter told Le Figaro. “He was cold throughout his time in custody.”
Prosecutors said the sinister attacker was charged on Saturday with “rape accompanied by torture or acts of barbarism”.

The victim told the police that she had seen Oumar N. in Cherbourg before the attack but did not know him, revealed Pierre-Yves Marot, the public prosecutor of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin.
The attack she suffered and the resulting injuries, including puncturing parts of her abdomen and small intestine, shocked doctors and residents of Cherbourg.
Doctors and nurses who treated the victim when he arrived at hospital were reportedly so horrified by his injuries that some collapsed and burst into tears. Psychological support is now being provided to doctors, reports France Blue.
French politicians have expressed outrage at the attack, with some on the far right blaming an apparent rise in “barbarism” in France for the rape.
Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally, tweeted: “Courage to the 29-year-old victim, umpteenth life shattered by the barbarism that is spreading to France.”
Far-right French politician Eric Zemmour, who ran for president earlier this year, wrote on Twitter: “I dream of a France where a young woman does not risk ending up in a coma after having been robbed, raped and horribly tortured by repeat offender Oumar in her own home.
