The lawyer representing the victim who was allegedly sexually assaulted by the former FC Barcelona player, daniel alvesstates that he had to admit that there was vaginal penetration in the last statement of the football player, but he consented because of the evidence against him, especially the semen in the victim’s body. This is one of the arguments used by lawyer Ester García, who opposes the freedom of the Brazilian star. The letter contains a possible discrepancy, published by EL PERIÓDICO DE CATALUNYA of the Prensa Ibérica group: As the athlete explains, if it was consensual sex, because they did not do it in the Suite of the Sutton nightclub. The sofa and a small private bathroom are not more comfortable.

In that April 17 interrogation, he admitted that he had lied until then, claimed he had an obsession with hiding his infidelity from his wife, and admitted it was penetration that matched his DNA analysis. Before he went to prison and on his first appearance in court, he presented three other versions: that he didn’t know the woman, that she went to the bathroom but nothing happened, and that the victim gave him oral sex (which she denies).

The special prosecutor’s office sided with the prosecution, refusing to release Alves. The attorney points out that the player’s latest version doesn’t match up with other tests, such as the one Mossos performed on the victim’s footprints in the bathroom. His position confirms the woman’s complaint and, according to her, not the football player’s statement. The lawyer also questions the report submitted by the defense regarding the footage recorded by the nightclub’s cameras, and argues that it is of interest and, at least in part, a comment. And she stresses that there is still a risk of escapism due to Alves’ economic capacity and the fact that his alleged ties before the divorce announced by Joana Sanz are now even less so.
