Dani Alves arrived directly from Brians 2 prison.
Footballer Dani Alves has testified Monday before the judge investigating him for allegedly sexually assaulting a girl at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona on December 30, 2022 and, as expected, has assured that he did not abuse the girl, but that they had consensual sex.
The Brazilian has answered questions from all parties.
Sources present at the statement explained that the Brazilian has answered questions from all parties; his defense, the private prosecution and the prosecution, although most of the 20 minutes that the statement lasted consisted of the player’s explanation, without questions.
The young woman’s lawyer arriving at the courthouse.
Alves has testified at his own request at Barcelona’s 15th Court of Instruction after the judge refused to release him from pre-trial detention, where he has been held since January 20.
Alves’ defense has admitted the erratic pre-statement
In the appeal with which he tried to get out of prison, the footballer’s own defense admitted the «erratic statement» of the footballer, who during the investigation has given different versions of the facts and began by denying that he had met the girl.
The soccer player has given his fourth version of events.
This Monday, Alves, in what would be his fourth version, admitted to the judge that he lied because he was «obsessed» with his wife not discovering that he had been unfaithful, and that the rapprochement with the young woman and the «sexual tension» in the private room of the nightclub was mutual.
The Brazilian’s defense is expected to request a conditional release
The Brazilian’s defense has requested this new statement once the investigation of the case is already advanced, and can now ask again for the player to be released on bail, although no appeal has been filed for now.
Satisfied with the player’s statement
Defense sources said they were «happy, satisfied» and assured that the player had made a linearly correct statement.
Dani Alves’ arrival to court
The statement was to be held at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, although it has been delayed for two hours due to a «problem in the driving order» of Alves from Brians 2 prison to the courts.
