Dani Alves' alleged victim's lawyer: There are people who think they are above good and evil

Victim says she is receiving psychological support

The lawyer for the victim of Dani Alves' alleged sexual assault, Ester Garcia Lopez, has not hesitated to attack the footballer, pointing out that the former Barcelona player did not use protection during the sexual assault and that, in addition to psychological support, her client has had to receive treatment to prevent sexually transmitted diseases.

New portal UOL explains that the girl is afraid that her identity will be revealed.

"She is receiving psychological support through a public entity specializing in the treatment of victims of violence," Lopez declared.

"The hospital has prescribed her a complete treatment aimed at avoiding any kind of infectious disease, as condoms were not used.

"She has also been receiving pharmacological treatment with anxiolytics to be able to sleep, but she told me that she has not been able to do so since she gave her testimony."

Moreover, she says that their client did not drink alcohol that night.

"She gave a concise statement, without any contradictions. Many women suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder and forget details, they remember later, and that doesn't invalidate the truth," she added.

"But in her case, that didn't happen, she remembered everything, from beginning to end.

"This, together with the possibility of Mr. Alves' escape, who has a favorable economic status and dual nationality, were the determining factors for his arrest.

"Fortunately, she left the nightclub in an ambulance and went straight to the Central Sexual Assault Unit.

"So, unlike most victims of sexual violence, who out of disgust wash their underwear, she did not have time to think about it, she was quickly attended to, while the evidence remained there."

Who is Cristobal Martell, the lawyer defending Dani Alves?

Cristobal Martell is a prestigious criminal lawyer and is in charge of the defense of Dani Alves in the case opened in the courts of Barcelona, together with the lawyer Miraida Puente Wilson.

She runs a law firm specializing in criminal law, chosen by Alves himself. Martell is one of the most reputable lawyers in Barcelona, and is also the lawyer of the former president of the Generalitat, Jordi Pujol, and Lionel Messi.
