Dani Alves successfully appealed against a sexual assault conviction after a Spanish court found the evidence insufficient to dismiss his presumption of innocence. Initially convicted in February 2024 for raping a woman in a nightclub in December 2022, Alves had received a sentence of four years and six months. After being released from prison in March 2024 while awaiting the appeal, the court's ruling highlighted serious doubts about the evidence presented during the trial, which ultimately cleared him of the charges.
The court ruled that there was 'insufficient evidence' to challenge Dani Alves' presumption of innocence, leading to the overturning of his previous conviction.
Dani Alves, who denied any wrongdoing throughout the trial, had been found guilty and sentenced to four years and six months in prison before the appeal.
