If an officer gets there, he will comply. He will not oppose,\u201d Alckim said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur first concern is to suspend the immediate arrest order. We will ask for the sentence to be executed after the appeal decision has been made.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first judge to vote, Francisco Falc\u00e3o, said Robinho should serve his sentence in Brazil. He added that the former player cannot go unpunished and that diplomatic friction between Brazil and Italy could emerge if the sentence is not served.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no obstacle to validate the execution of his sentence. It was confirmed by a court in Milan, which is the competent authority in this case,\u201d Falc\u00e3o said. \u201cThe conviction is final. The defendant was not put on trial in absence in Italy, he had representation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Robinho lives in Santos, outside Sao Paulo. He relinquished his passport to Brazilian authorities in March 2023. He continues to deny any wrongdoing and insists his sexual relations with the woman at a Milan bar were consensual.<\/p>\n<p>Lawyer Jacopo Gnocchi, who represented the victim, said he and his client were satisfied by the Brazil court\u2019s ruling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that this is the fair conclusion of a case that took place in Italy, with assurances for all the defendants who were then found guilty,\u201d Gnocchi told Brazilian news website UOL.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe respected and we understood that the Brazilian Constitution does not allow the extradition (of its own citizens), but that does not change the fact that when the sentence is final it is fair\u2026 that the sentence is applied.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robinho\u00a0 \u00a0 The majority of judges on a Brazilian court ruled on Wednesday to uphold an Italian court\u2019s rape conviction for former AC Milan and Brazil striker Robinho, adding he must serve the nine-year prison sentence in Brazil.
