Italian Court of Appeal upholds second-degree conviction of Brazilian footballer Robinho. In 2017, he was sentenced to 9 years in prison for gang rape.
According to UOL, Robinho's defense disagrees with this decision and will appeal to the Court of Cassation..
Robinho and five others were found guilty of the gang rape of a 22-year-old Albanian girl - the incident took place in Milan on January 22, 2013.
On October 11, 2020, Robinho signed a contract with Brazilian Santos.
After 6 days, the club terminated the agreement so that the 36-year-old footballer dealt with the court case.
In 2009, Robinho was arrested and released on bail on suspicion of rape in England, but the case was closed..
Robinho has played for AC Milan, Real Madrid, City, Guangzhou Evergrande and Atletico Mineiro.
