Foot: “Money cannot buy back the offense against a woman he raped”, President Lula criticizes the release of Daniel Alves

Brazilian President Lula has criticized the Spanish court's decision to give former footballer Daniel Alves the opportunity to leave prison on bail after his conviction for rape.

“The money that Daniel Alves has, the money that someone could lend him, cannot redeem the offense of a man towards a woman he raped,” Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said Wednesday evening , during a dinner celebrating the 44th anniversary of the Workers' Party (PT), in Brasilia.

A Barcelona court on Wednesday gave the green light for the former Brazilian international to be released pending his appeal judgment, upon payment of one million euros. “A scandal” for the plaintiff’s lawyer, who denounced “justice for the rich”.

The former full-back was sentenced last month to four and a half years in prison for the rape of a young woman in December 2022 in a nightclub in Barcelona.

According to several Spanish media, Neymar's father, a former teammate of Alves at FC Barcelona and Paris SG, could pay the necessary bail for his release.

Last week, the Brazilian president had already stepped up to demand the incarceration of another football star from his country convicted of rape, ex-striker Robinho, judging that he had to “pay the price for his irresponsibility » for an “unforgivable” crime.

On Wednesday, the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) of Brazil decided that Robinho will have to serve in his country a nine-year prison sentence for gang rape pronounced in absentia in Italy, for facts dating back to 2013, when he was a player of the AC Milan.
