Brazilian football legend, Dani Alves, has been detained by police in Barcelona in relation to an investigation for an alleged sexual assault.
A spokesperson for Catalan’s regional police told CNN on Friday.
Truth Live News learnt that Alves was at a police station in Barcelona on Friday morning, which he later left as a “detainee.”
According to the spokesperson, Alves was driven in a police car from the station to a court in Barcelona’s “City of Justice,” where he will appear in front of a judge later on Friday.
In a video sent to Spanish channel Antena 3, Alves said he was at the night club but denied the allegations.
“I want to deny everything, first. I was there, in that location, I was there with more people, having a good time,” he said.
“I am very sorry, but I don’t know who this lady is,” he also said.
