Luis Rubiales is in the media spotlight due to the controversies that surround him. The kiss he gave Jennifer Hermoso during the Women’s World Cup trophy presentation has sparked a social movement to end this type of attitude in the world of sports. A fact that has gone around the world and has had numerous consequences.
The president, now temporarily disabled, of the Royal Spanish Football Federation gave a speech assuring that the act was consented to and that he did not intend to resign from his duties. Something that the player denied and claimed to have felt “vulnerable and victim of aggression.” After this, the leader’s mother has decided to go on a hunger strike “until Jenni tells the truth.”
Ángeles Béjar, Rubiales’ mother, has been locked up in the Divina Pastora parish of Motril for three days, carrying out her hunger strike. “I don’t mind dying for justice. My son is a decent person and what they are doing to him is not fair,” she assured Europa Press. But she has not been alone at any time.
Family members have decided to take turns so that the mother is not alone at any time and to show their support for the director. One of them was Ángeles’ sister-in-law, who did not hesitate to speak to the press after spending the night with her.
The Rubiales family member has assured that they have spent the “regular” night, despite the fact that they already have more amenities, according to The Summer Program. And it is that they would have allowed him access to one of the rooms of the church. “We have everything, we are very well,” the sister-in-law continued to recount.
In addition, he wanted to make it clear that they are sleeping well, despite the fact that Ángeles is having a hard time with the heat. “She only drinks, not eat, because she has to take medication,” she added. But it seems that Rubiales has already asked her mother to come out of her confinement. “That she come home because otherwise we will have to call an ambulance to take her to the hospital,” she has transferred her sister-in-law.
Likewise, the family member has made it clear that they are doing everything possible to make her back down in her decision: “I have tried to get her out, but there is no way.” And it seems that she does nothing but think about it. “Well, there she is, nothing more than looking at the phone with all the news,” she assured.
Concern for Ángeles Béjar’s state of health increased, and a doctor, a family friend, went to check on her during the 8:00 p.m. mass. “Relatives, her son, the parish priest and her friends have tried to convince her to leave the church,” said the reporter for the aforementioned space.
