The Brazilian soccer player, Dani Alves, will request provisional release to face trial for the alleged sexual abuse against a 23-year-old girl, which he would have committed in a bathroom at the Sutton nightclub, in Barcelona, Spain.
La Vanguardia published that the soccer player’s lawyer, Cristóbal Martell, filed an appeal before the Barcelona Court.
In the letter guarantees are presented to the judges of the case that the Brazilian will remain at his home in Barcelona while the trial is being held. In addition, it offers that the player uses the geolocator bracelet, delivers his passport and presents a daily signature before the court.
La Vanguardia also published an alleged message that Dani Alves sent from the Brians 2 prison, in which he affirms that he is not afraid of what may happen to his future.
“I will accept whatever comes. I left home when I was barely 15 years old. I have overcome in my life very difficult and complicated situations. This will be one more thing that will happen, nothing scares me,” said the player.
The Barcelona outlet also indicated that the soccer player maintains his position that the sexual relations he had in the disco, and for which he is accused of sexual abuse, happened “with the consent of the woman.”
Since January 20, the former Pumas player has been kept in module 13 of the Brians 2 prison, and has not received any exceptional measures.
