São Paulo Brazil

The scene closes for Robinho.

Minister Francisco Falcão, of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), gave a period of 15 days for the defense of the player Robinho to present a challenge to the Italian government’s request for him to serve a nine-year prison sentence for rape.

The athlete’s defense wanted a full review of the athlete’s judgment in Italy and demanded a full and translated copy of the process, in order to look for possible irregularities.

The basic claim is that there was no way for the player to defend himself.

But, for the minister, the entire trial took place legally.

“The interested party was regularly represented by a lawyer appointed by him, and there is no reason to presume, without any precise and objective indication, that there is an irregularity in the foreign procedure”, said the minister.

Now, the player’s defense needs to position itself, try to convince the STJ that Robinho’s arrest and sentence in Brazil is not legal or fair.


The player, as the blog anticipated, is no longer living in his penthouse apartment in Santos. Not even in the Guarujá mansion, which is located in the condominium where Neymar has a luxurious home.

Robinho complained to the court that journalists from different stations are camped at the entrance to his coverage in Santos.

The situation would even be affecting the children’s routine.

The blog had the information that Robinho was seen far away from there, last week.

With mask, sunglasses and cap.

Even so, it was recognized by the popular.

On a farm belonging to his wife’s family.

In the city of Avare.

Friends of the player ensure that he has been constantly changing locations.

To avoid harassment of journalists.

And always looking for places.

The possibility of him having been to Avaré is very great…
