The next few days will be key to find out what will be of the future of Dani Alves. The 39-year-old player, who comes from being part of the roster of the Brazil team that played in the World Cup in Qatar at the end of last year, has been detained since January 20 in the center Brian’s 2 Barcelona for the cause of sexual assault against a 23-year-old girl of which he is accused.
“Narrative distortion”: the keys to the defense of Dani Alves to achieve freedom from prison for the case of sexual assault
The Brazilian’s lawyer, Cristóbal Martell, raises several situations against the investigation
While he remains in prison, the Barcelona Court must define whether he will continue in jail or whether the request for probation made by his lawyer will be accepted Christopher Martellthe lawyer who took charge of the defense of the former Pumas de México player once he was arrested by the Mossos d’Esquadra after the fact that took place in the disco Sutton of the Catalan city.
After having received the appeals presented by the defense and the lawyer of the woman who was allegedly abused by Alves, and the coroner’s reports from the Examining Court number 15 of Barcelona, which confirmed the penetration by the historic Brazilian full-back and that he also traces of semen were found on the young woman’s clothing and on the floor of the VIP bathroom, the decision on the future of the former Barça would be taken after a “vistilla”as indicated by the TV channel Antenna 3from Spain.

The 39-year-old Brazilian is still detained in Barcelona awaiting the resolution of justice
What do you mean by that name? It is a Spanish judicial term used in a preliminary hearing in which a judge must confirm whether there is cause to go ahead with the accusation against the person involved or release him in the manner decided by the magistrate.
The Spanish media indicated that the situation was delayed longer than expected because both parties involved and the Prosecutor’s Office rushed to deliver the allegations of the case. Another of the situations that are put on the table, and that could generate a change in the case would be that Dani Alves decided to testify again. It would be his fifth testimony from him, after the previous ones in which he gave different versions of the facts. In the last one, the former San Pablo footballer confirmed that there was a sexual relationship, but he indicated that the act was “consensual”.
Pending the decision of the Court of Barcelona, the defense is working on a plan to dismantle what it considers a “narrative distortion” about what happened that morning at the disco. For the defense lawyer, there are elements that support the idea that the sexual act between Alves and the alleged victim was consented. After reviewing the seven hours of recording of the night, a two-minute difference is established between the entry to the bathroom of the player who comes from being part of the roster of the Brazilian team in the last World Cup in Qatar and that of the woman who accuses him, indicated the newspaper La Razón.
The mysterious letter that Dani Alves’ wife received: “I don’t know who you are, but thank you very much”
Joana Sanz shared on her social networks the handwritten letter sent to her by an admirer, in the midst of the crisis she is going through due to the death of her mother and the judicial situation of the Brazilian soccer player, who is staying in the Brians 2 prison, accused of abuse sexual
In this sense, lawyer Martell understands that the investigation initiated by the security forces of Catalonia was “biased” because the videos do not show that the girl has been under a situation of “terror, dread or domination” as the reports indicate about the moment the victim would have suffered in this case.
Shortly after serving a month in custody, the Prosecutor’s Office took into account a similar case that also featured a Brazilian player to decide that Alves remain in prison until the definition of the cause. A few years ago, the former Real Madrid and Brazil number 10 Robinho was sentenced along with a friend for rape in three instances in Italy and currently lives freely in Brazil. This scenario was cited by prosecutors out of fear that Daniel Alves would travel to his native country and then he could not be extradited in the face of a possible sentence.
