Now Ronaldinho (40) is speaking!
The former Brazilian soccer star spoke for the first time after his imprisonment in the capital of Paraquay, Asunción. “It was a hard blow. I never thought I would go through such a situation,” the two-time world soccer player and 2002 world champion said in an interview with the Paraguayan newspaper “ABC Color.”
On the night of March 6, Ronaldinho ended up in jail instead of leaving the following day as scheduled. The reason: he had entered Paraguay with false passports.
Ronaldinho had spent more than 30 days. The partners had given the wrong documents to him and his brother Roberto Assis.
Ronaldinho continued: “We were totally surprised to learn that the documents were not legal. Since then, our intention has been to work with the judiciary to clarify the facts. From that moment until today we have explained everything that the judiciary required. ”
From jail to hotel arrest
The occasion of his guest appearance in Paraguay: Ronaldinho wanted to open an online casino and promote his biography. Faith had helped him through the difficult situation of deprivation of liberty. “I always pray that things go well and I hope this ends soon.” The first thing he would do then would be to kiss his mother.
Ronaldinho was placed under house arrest in early April and has since been awaiting further proceedings at a hotel in Asunción. He and his brother, who are the only guests, cannot receive visitors.
In the first days of detention, he received visits from Paraguayan soccer stars like Carlos Gamarra and gifts from other players. The fans went to jail to see him; His fellow inmates fought for him as a teammate in the soccer tournament. Videos of Ronaldinho playing soccer or futsal were filmed.
Ronaldinho: “Playing soccer, signing autographs, photos is part of my life. I would have no reason not to do this, and even less with people who had a difficult time like mine. “
