A Spanish court has ordered the conditional release of Valencia striker Rafa Mir following his arrest on suspicion of sexual assault. Mir, 27, was detained on Monday after a woman filed a complaint against him.
The investigating judge, who has yet to determine whether there is sufficient evidence for a trial, has imposed conditions on Mir’s release. He is required to appear in court regularly and is prohibited from leaving Spain while the investigation remains ongoing.
Mir’s lawyer, Jaime Campaner, has stated that the sexual relations were consensual. However, the judge will now lead an investigation into the complaint, meticulously examining evidence to determine the veracity of the allegations.
This case has drawn significant attention within the Spanish football community and beyond. The outcome of the investigation will have a profound impact on Mir’s career and reputation. As the investigation unfolds, further details and developments are expected to emerge.
