Sebastián Villa’s lawyer pronounces on the complaint

Three weeks have passed since Sebastián Villa was denounced for sexual abuse and attempted murder for an event that occurred in mid-2021 and two weeks since he was officially charged by the Argentine justice system. The Boca Juniors soccer player was absent from practice on Thursday because he had to appear for a psychiatric examination.

Martín Apolo, lawyer for the attacker from Antioquia, spoke on Radio La Red and assured that in the complainant’s story there are many things that contradict each other and that her complaint possibly has underlying economic reasons. Similarly, he stated that there was no crime and He assured that although there was a sexual relationship between the player and the woman, it was conscientious.

“Proceedings are being made to determine if the crime exists. The Prosecutor’s Office is gathering elements. Legally speaking, nothing happened. For me there was no crime. There was a social gathering, a consensual sexual relationship, and so the night ended. According to what I spoke with my client, there were no alleged injuries and they were added to the file, “said the lawyer.

“She went to attend for vaginal pain resulting from sexual intercourse, that’s what she told the complainant at the public hospital, but that can have many origins. The gynecological examination did not show any anomaly or any lesion that warrants the opening of a protocol.”, he added.

According to Apolo, Boca Juniors has been very attentive to the entire process carried out by their player, which is why they have had a good relationship with the club’s legal department. The lawyer also assured that the other process in which his client finds himself will be defined in September.

“Boca Juniors, on behalf of their lawyers, have been in contact with me, they have internalized the matter. I have them informed for more than that my client is Sebastián Villa and not Boca Juniors. It is not an easy situation for my client beyond the mental strength he has. Boca has had containment, as well as its representatives. Sebastián Villa is a public person and is exposed to these things and situations like these are generated, ”he concluded.
