FREE MAN! Ronaldinho Will NOT Face Charges Over Use Of Fake Passports

Posted by E.L.E.X on March 07 2020 under Sports

Former Brazil forward Ronaldinho will not be charged for using a fake passport to enter Paraguay, says the lead official in the case.

The 39-year-old and his brother were both questioned by law enforcement on Thursday having shown false documents.

Prosecutor Federico Delfino said the brothers were aware they had committed a crime but said they did so unwittingly.

The pair have agreed to face an alternative punishment.

“We are looking for a different way out of this that doesn’t result in a formal accusation and that recognises that these people were, we can say, taken by surprise,” Delfino told reporters in Asuncion, Paraguay’s capital.

Another man who travelled with the brothers – 45-year-old Wilmondes Sousa Lira – was held.

A judge will decide whether to accept Delfino’s recommendation on Friday. An alternative punishment could be a fine payable to a local charity.

Reuters report that Ronaldinho’s lawyer Adolfo Marin could not be reached for comment.
