Wednesday, October 23, 2024 - Former Chilean international Jorge Valdivia
has been arrested on suspicion of r@pe, according to prosecutors.
Valdivia, a renowned attacking midfielder who played a pivotal role in
Chile’s 2015 Copa America victory, was detained following allegations made by a
woman after an encounter in Santiago.
The woman, a tattoo artist, claims she met Valdivia at a Peruvian
restaurant in Santiago’s Providencia district to discuss tattoo designs. After
consuming two cocktails, she allegedly experienced a memory blackout and woke
up in Valdivia’s apartment the following morning. She later filed a formal
complaint after Valdivia confirmed they had engaged in sexual activity.
Valdivia has denied the allegations, stating, "I had a consensual
relationship with an adult woman." He has expressed his willingness to
cooperate fully with the investigation, urging the public to respect his right
to innocence.
As a result of the ongoing legal proceedings, Prisa Media, which owns
Radio ADN where Valdivia works as a football commentator, has announced his
suspension until the case is resolved in court
