The legal team of the Spanish national team soccer player Jenni Hermoso announced this Wednesday that it will undertake different actions with the aim of protecting and guaranteeing the privacy of its client after the video of the player’s statement before the Prosecutor’s Office on September 5, when she formalized the the complaint against the former president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) Luis Rubiales for him kiss he gave her at the World Cup trophy ceremony held in Sydney (Australia).
In a press release issued by his representation agency, TMJcollected by Europa Press, it is noted that the purpose is to redirect the open criminal procedure that is being followed in the National Court after this leak to the media – the images were broadcast last Monday by Telecinco.
Jenni Hermoso breaks her silence in public: “It’s over”
“We want to remember that all criminal proceedings must be carried out with guarantees to preserve the right to privacy of the victims,” they indicate, and point out that although until a few days ago they thought that this process offered Jenni (Hermoso) a safe environment, “the “continuous leaks and the lack of said guarantees prevent the player from being able to carry out the process normally.”
For TMJ “the limits have been exceeded(…) the basic rights of Jenni (Hermoso) have been violated and she has been exposed to public opinion again without any type of consent, violating her data protection rights.”
In this sense, they explain that the events not only put their health at risk, but “also put at risk the reliability and independence of the judicial process” which is why they urge the competent bodies to take measures against those responsible for the leaks and to search for solutions to guarantee the security and custody of case information during the criminal process.
It is worth remembering that the judge investigating the matter in the National Court, Francisco de Jorge has already reacted to the leak of the audio of Rubiales’ own statement by restricting access to the audios.
Legal sources confirmed to Europa Press on October 5 that De Jorge agreed that only the transcripts of the statements would be provided to the parties in person and not the audio of them.
