Paris, Dec 20 (UNI) The older brother of Paul Pogba, former Manchester United midfielder, has been sentenced to a three-year jail term, two years suspended, after being convicted of attempting to extort the French footballer.
Mathias Pogba, who was also fined €20,000 (£16,500), will avoid time behind bars and instead serve one year wearing an electronic bracelet.
Five other men were found guilty of extortion and other crimes and received sentences between four and eight years in a Paris court on Thursday, according to a BBC report.
