Attacked by PSG and the alleged victim in Sweden who would have mentioned his name to the Stocklhom police, the Real Madrid player chose the voice of his lawyer to give more information this Tuesday evening. During this interview with the French TV channel, Maître Marie-Alix Canu Bernard also confirmed that complaints for defamation would be filed soon to counter any media harassment of which the captain of the Blues is the victim. She also detailed: “He is particularly serene but on the other hand he is totally stunned to see this media hype. He doesn’t understand at all what can be blamed on him in any way.“. The affair has only just begun.
In the columns of Le Parisien, the lawyer added: “When you are accused of rape, it is quite traumatic so you get closer to someone who has a minimum knowledge of justice on these issues. He doesn’t need a lawyer but obviously we can’t let denunciations like these spread without doing anything. When all the press is going wild, we have to look into the reasons why such a complaint was filed and immediately publicized. Obviously, we will contact the competent court to file a complaint for slanderous denunciation or for denunciation of an imaginary offense. We are not going to let these accusations go unanswered. We are not going to leave room for detractors who have been trying to denigrate him for months. There is still a big campaign which is coming out in a very curious way, always through the same vectors, almost anonymous sites or pharmacies which seek to smear it. We need to understand“.
