The Spanish prosecutor’s office has requested a nine-year prison sentence for former Brazilian footballer Dani Alves, who is accused of rape by a young woman in a Barcelona nightclub at the end of December 2022.
Currently in provisional detention since January, Alves is awaiting his trial, the date of which has not been set.
In addition to the prison sentence, the prosecutor is seeking compensation of 150,000 euros to be paid to the victim, as well as a formal prohibition for Alves to approach her, according to details from the indictment consulted by AFP.
The case, which began with Dani Alves’ arrest earlier this year, continues to attract attention and raises questions about its judicial outcome. Future developments will depend on the ongoing legal process.”
