Ney Alves, brother of Dani Alves, has responded to Irene Montero’s tweet in which she said that “powerful men can buy their freedom.”
The former footballer’s brother used his Stories on his public Instagram profile to respond to the former Minister of Equality, ensuring that if Sani was released it was because “the judge sees contradictions in the victim’s version.” To his response, Alves’ brother continued with two more publications, insisting on the former Barça player’s innocence and making his position clear: “The victim lied.”
The former Minister of Equality Irene Montero stated last Wednesday that the provisional release of Dani Alves on bail represented “a dangerous message of lack of protection for women”, since “powerful men can buy their freedom”. The Podemos candidate for the European elections insisted on her message on X (former Twitter), insisting that “justice must be feminist and equal for all.”
His words did not please Ney Alves at all, who did not hesitate to reply to the politician, insisting that if his brother was released from prison it was because “the judge sees contradictions in the victim’s version.” What’s more, having overcome this setback, the brother of the former Barça player announced the next step for the family, which is to prove the athlete’s innocence.
In two publications that Ney Alves shared in his Stories after his response to politics, he dedicated himself to precisely that: showing part of the summary of the court ruling and “demonstrating” how the victim lied. “Daniel is innocent,” he writes on the social network.
The former footballer who was sentenced to four and a half years in prison for raping a girl in the bathrooms of the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona. Now, however, he has been released after paying the million euros requested by the Barcelona Court; amount that he has paid thanks to his compatriot, Neymar Jr.
In a third publication, Dani Alves’ brother reiterates: “The victim lied.” Not only that, but he insists on the “cruelty” with which justice has treated his brother, which “the whole world will regret.”
Alves’ defense has already requested provisional release, alleging that he had already served part of the sentence, for his part the former player has said that he believes in justice and that he will not go to his native Brazil. For its part, the court considers that the risk of escape on the part of the former footballer still exists, but it would have decreased. Dani Alves’ lawyer, Inés Guardiola, proposed precautionary measures to the court that would guarantee the footballer’s commitment to justice once the Brazilian’s sentence was known. In addition to paying the bail, Alves will hand over his passport and sign periodically at judicial offices.
