His lawyer is working against the clock

After working against the clock all weekend, this Monday Dani Alves’ lawyer, Cristóbal Martell, presented in the courts of Barcelona the appeal against the order of provisional imprisonment and now, almost 48 hours later, we know all the details of it. The defense of the footballer asks for his provisional freedom alleging that the security cameras of the Sutton nightclub, where allegedly took place the sexual aggression of the footballer to a 23-year-old girl last December 30, «disprove» the version of the complainant.

The appeal denies that the Brazilian closed the door of the toilet, where he allegedly had the sexual assault, and relies on the images captured by the cameras of the premises to claim that the girl entered two minutes after he did, «without Dani Alves letting her pass or opening the door».

The woman has denounced that the alleged aggression occurred once inside the bathroom, where there are no cameras, but Alves’ defense points out that the complainant has described that previous moment «as lived in a climate of terror, dread or microcosm of domination, a scenario that the images disprove in the most radical way», assuring that there was no «environmental intimidation» to bend the will of the alleged victim.

According to his lawyer, the images «conflict and contradict the description given by the complainant», after which he also questions the woman’s explanation of what happened inside the bathroom, which is not recorded.

With this appeal, Martell hopes to obtain provisional release on bail for Alves, and offers to comply with several measures to ensure that he will not abscond: among others, he is willing to wear a telematic bracelet that will geolocate him.

He has also proposed to the court that he be obliged to appear in court periodically, «even daily», surrender his passport, be prohibited from leaving Spain while the case is being investigated and that a restraining order be imposed on him to stay away from the complainant.

In addition, he assures that there is no flight risk, and as proof of this is that Alves traveled from Mexico to Barcelona to testify at the police station knowing that he was under investigation, and affirms that in the Catalan city he has «personal, family, social and business roots».

The lawyer states that the player’s initial denial «finds a natural and rudimentary explanation in the desire to preserve his wife and children from conduct that might be inappropriate for a sexual relationship».
