(Photo: RFEF) The Government wants to remove Rubiales The Government's intention is clear. In a forceful statement, the acting Minister of Finance and Public Function, María Jesús Montero, stated this Sunday that the Government is committed to ensuring that the president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Luis Rubiales, "does not return." to direct Spanish football. Montero highlighted the Government's concern for integrity and equality in the sports field, which has generated a broad debate in the country's political and sports landscape. «Mr. Rubiales cannot return to direct football in this country.
A person who lies, a person who has shown that he has not understood anything about what the fight for equality means in an area as important as sport cannot have the direction of football in this country in his hands," Montero emphasized. in statements addressed to the media. For its part, the Prosecutor's Office of the National Court already has on the table four complaints filed against the current president of the Royal Spanish Football Whatsapp Database Federation (RFEF), Luis Rubiales, for the kiss on the mouth he gave to the player of the Spanish women's team Jenni Hermoso after winning the world cup in Australia. For now, these complaints have simply been sent to the Prosecutor's Office of the National Court, which must now decide whether to open proceedings for an alleged crime of sexual assault, included in article 191 of the Penal Code.
What the Prosecutor's Office must analyze is whether the kiss was consensual or against the player's will. In the press conference offered by Rubiales this morning after the RFEF assembly, he defended himself by arguing that it was a consensual kiss and without any type of sexual intention. Furthermore, he maintained that it was Hermoso herself who first lifted him up after the euphoria of winning the World Cup. According to her version, before giving him the kiss she asked him: "A little beak?" and she said "okay." The criminal procedure in Spain, however, presents multiple obstacles. It is foreseeable that in the coming days we will clear up doubts.
