Will a dramatic development in Dani Alves' rape case lead to his acquittal?

The Spanish media reports that two security cameras at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona, ​​where the footballer allegedly raped a young woman, contradict the complainant's claim.

The photos are unclear but according to the report they document Alves entering the bathroom in the VIP area.

According to the defense, the complainant entered two minutes after Alves entered, which contradicts her testimony to the police and the court.

What this means for Alves' representatives is that it proves that he did not force her to enter the cell.

As I recall, according to the complainant's version Alves behaved aggressively, leaned on her and then threw her to the floor, grabbed her by the neck and slapped her while he forced himself on her.

The turnaround that will lead to acquittal?

In addition, in Spain it is reported that the king of the investigation Alves changed his approach three times and "presented himself as a victim".

At first he denied that they had a relationship and at the police station he said that he did not know the girl.

Later, in front of the judge at the initial hearing, he claimed that nothing happened and only stated that he met her in the bathroom.

After it was made clear to him that the evidence contradicted his claim, Alves again retracted his earlier statements and said that she had attacked him.

According to the report, Alves even claims that the complainant approached him and performed oral sex on him, against his will, but he did not object either.

"She attacked me, I didn't want to touch her," he said, clarifying that she was the aggressor: "The truth is that I was trying to protect this young girl."

As mentioned, this claim was also found to be incorrect, because it turned out that there was full sexual intercourse between the two, according to a DNA test.

It is also claimed that the security cameras showed that after what happened between them in the bathroom, Alves went out and quickly passed the young woman, who was sitting crying on the floor,

In one of the TV shows ("The Ana Rosa") it was claimed that in a conversation with his wife Joana Sans he told her that he "doesn't remember anything from that night because I was drunk".
