Cristóbal Martell, Dani Alves' lawyer, abandons the case

The case of Dani Alves continues to be one of the central issues of our country today. The footballer was arrested at the beginning of the year for allegedly raping a 23-year-old girl at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona. Everything happened last December and after the victim reported, the player was arrested on January 20.

Since then, the athlete remains in the Catalan prison of Brians 2, serving provisional imprisonment while waiting for the trial to be held for the crime of sexual assault with which he is accused. At the moment there is no exact date for the trial but everything indicates that it will be held between October and November of this year.

The media case continues to be the order of the day and this Wednesday the Sonsoles Ónega program, And now Sonsoles, gave a live exclusive. According to journalist Carlos Quílez, this new information was going to be decisive for Dani Alves' case. ''We can exclusively state that Dani Alves' lawyer, Mr. Cristóbal Martell, who is the defense lawyer who has directed the entire defense since the footballer was arrested, has abandoned him, he has left his client at the gates of the trial. '', stated the collaborator.

The news did not end there and the journalist revealed that there was already a replacement for the lawyer. ''He has just given permission to another colleague, a young woman of 35 years old, an expert in penitentiary law. Martell is now leaving the legal company to which he has been pleased to join in recent months,'' the collaborator assured.

''Cristóbal Martell leaves the case at the door of trial and Dani Alves changes lawyers and hires a young lawyer, an expert in penitentiary law. "This gesture suggests that he considers the situation lost, he accepts the conviction, but he is thinking more about the prison repercussion of the conviction that is going to come to him, than about the possibility of winning the case," he declared. .

Regarding what could be the reason for this decision, the journalist confessed: ''It could be because he has lost confidence in the lawyer or that the lawyer himself has exhausted all his legal knowledge and understanding that he has put at his disposal and has decided to ignore the case. case''.
