Fixed: Sports Events Recap Clip, May 16 (Sports5)
Dani Alves has been in detention for almost four months without Barcelona on suspicion of rape, and the country reports that after more than 100 days in prison, imprisonment does its job, affecting him physically and mentally.
According to a Spanish television report by one of the prisoners staying with him, "Alves looks thinner than ever, very emaciated. He barely gets out of his cell. He only goes to the sports center, when there are internal games. Usually he just stays in his room."
It was also reported that he was bullied and teased by prisoners who tried to "abuse him." "There are some people here who, every time in the dining room, shout all sorts of things at him, curse, 'You gay, you rapist!'"

Defending him in recent days was his ex-wife Joanna Sanz, who divorced him after reports that he cheated on her, but still supports him and talks to him. On Instagram, she wrote: "What happened to the presumption of innocence? Because until now, the only trial that has been decided is in the media."

Recently, when asked by reporters how Alves felt, Sanz replied cautiously: "You know, what it's like to be there inside...", without elaborating. When asked what he said about the rape, she replied: "We don't talk about those things."
In the past week there have been reports in Spain that she is in a relationship with Ashraf Hakimi, the Paris Saint-Germain player who, as is known, was also accused of rape. She vehemently denied the allegations and herself described the Barcelona media as "psychic" when it came to covering the affair and her personal pursuit, claiming she was "terrified" when she went out into the street and saw legions of journalists chasing her.
At the same time, his lawyers continue to try to get the former footballer released to house arrest, arguing that the fact that his first wife and children are moving to Barcelona to stay with him proves that he has "roots" in the city and has no intention of fleeing to Brazil. Among other things, according to the defense, "the complainant was seen crying after leaving the bathroom with him, but a young woman having sex with a 40-year-old married man has a thousand different reasons to cry."
Her testimony to the police was recently reported, where she said: "I know no one will believe me... Because I went to the bathroom with him... We kissed a few times, but then I told him I wanted to go out... But he said 'no' to me and closed the door, he started saying unpleasant things to me, like 'you're my' and even started beating me. He threw my bag on the floor and started undressing me."
