Rio de Janeiro sources reported that Brazilians for the first time late Wednesday heard from the woman who says that football superstar Neymar sexually assaulted her at a Paris hotel. Meanwhile extracts of a televised interview with Najila Trindade Mendes de Souza, the alleged victim, aired just one hour before Neymar was about to enter the pitch for a friendly game between brazil's national team and qatar in the capital Brasilia.
The woman in an interview broadcast on the SBT network "It was aggression together with rape” and the full interview is scheduled to air on Monday. Trindade, who says she works as a model, acknowledged that she initially liked Neymar full name Neymar da Silva Santos Junior and wanted to have sex with him. Furthermore the football megastar paid for a plane ticket to bring her from brazil and put her up in a Paris hotel and according to Trindade, Neymar apologized, but then continued hurting her while they had sex.
Moreover Neymar's father has claimed his son was the victim of a blackmail attempt, which the accuser's former lawyers have rejected. Hence adding to Neymar's woes is a police investigation into the publication of intimate information in his Instagram video without the woman's permission and such an offense carries a maximum five year jail term.
