Daniel Alves shares an area for sexual aggressors; see what the prison looks like

Daniel Alves was transferred this Monday from Brians 1 prison to Brians 2, which is next door, in Barcelona, ​​to guarantee his safety and “normal coexistence”, according to the Spanish press.

He shares a cell with another inmate in a module intended for inmates accused of sexual assault. The 39-year-old right-back was arrested without bail on Friday for alleged rape of a 23-year-old Spanish woman.

According to the athlete’s staff, the change was already foreseen and it is a unit protocol. The area is also known for being home to businessmen, politicians and former police officers. The place has a provisional prison department, as is the case with the Brazilian. The change of prison was decided by the Secretariat for Penal Measures, Reinsertion and Victim Assistance.

The Brians 2 Penitentiary Center was inaugurated on June 1, 2007. It is located next to the Brians 1 Penitentiary Center, in the municipality of Sant Esteve Sesrovires, a town in the north of the Baix Llobregat region. According to the Secretariat of Justice, Rights and Memory, the Brians 2 Penitentiary Center is made up of 14 modules and each one has 3 floors and 72 cells. It also has two more modules for certain services and profiles.

Each module has a cafeteria with basic products for prisoners, an outpatient clinic, occupational workshops, living room, hairdressing salon, educational rooms, children’s playground, gym, sports field and garden areas for walking.

Daniel Alves prison has already had the death of a famous

Antivirus pioneer John McAfee was found dead on June 23, 2021, in Brians 2 penitentiary in Sant Esteve de Sesrovires, Barcelona. Creator of the software that bears his last name, the 75-year-old businessman killed himself after the court decision authorizing McAfee’s extradition to the United States, where he would serve time for the crime of tax evasion.

The decision of the Spanish court could still have been appealed by McAfee’s defense, but a few hours after the order was issued, the businessman was found by police officers, already dead, in prison. Before he was arrested, he was wanted by Interpol with code red (the highest in the international police).

Another illustrious Brians 2 inmate was Sandro Rosell, former president of Barcelona. The top hat spent 21 months in prison after being arrested in May 2017 accused of misappropriating funds from the sale of television rights involving friendlies of the Brazilian national team, as well as a sponsorship contract between the sports material company Nike and the CBF, which at the time was chaired by Ricardo Teixeira. He was also accused of being part of a criminal organization.

When defending himself in court, Rosell admitted to having made some investments in business with Ricardo Teixeira, but which, in his version, would have no relation to the contracts for the matches in Brazil. But he admitted that the former CBF president lent him money to help him buy an apartment, something he said he paid back with interest three years later. Prosecutors say the loan was part of a money laundering scheme allegedly set up by the two former leaders.

The former manager of the Spanish club was released after being acquitted by a Madrid court. The ruling that favored him said it had not found enough evidence to find him guilty in this case.

Understand the Daniel Alves case

Judge Maria Concepción Canton Martín ordered the arrest of Daniel Alves on Friday. He was arrested while giving testimony in the case of sexual assault against a woman on 30 December. The Public Prosecutor’s Office asked for the 39-year-old athlete’s preventive detention, without the right to bail, and the holder of the Investigative Court 15 of Barcelona accepted the request, ordering the detention.

The judge argued in the decision that arresting the player was justified by the risk of fleeing, since the athlete no longer lives in Spain and has the financial resources to leave the country at any time. In addition, the country does not have an extradition agreement with Brazil.

The accusation refers to an episode that allegedly took place at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona. The athlete, who defended the Brazilian team at the World Cup in Qatar, allegedly raped his wife in the local bathroom, according to information from the newspaper. El Periódico, from Catalonia. According to the communication vehicle, the surveillance cameras at the site show that the Brazilian player spent 15 minutes in the bathroom with the young woman who reported him.

The security team at the nightclub called the Catalan police, who took a statement from the victim. She also underwent medical examination at a hospital. Daniel Alves left the scene before the police arrived.

According to the Spanish press, the contradiction in the right-back’s testimony was decisive for the country’s Public Ministry to ask for arrest and the judge to accept. In early January, the player gave an interview to the program “Y Ahora Sonsoles”, on Antena 3, in which he confirmed that he was in the same nightclub as the woman who accuses him, but denied having touched the complainant without her consent and said that neither knew her. In the statement, however, according to the media in Spain, the athlete claimed to have had consensual relations with the woman, whose name was not revealed.

According to the newspaper the countrythe woman does not want to be compensated and gave up being compensated financially for the injuries and also for moral damages because she understands that the main objective is to make the athlete punished for what happened.

Pumas, from Mexico, announced on Friday that Daniel Alves’ employment contract with the club will be terminated for just cause.
