Wednesday, June 4, 2025 - Prosecutors are demanding a four-year prison sentence for Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio over his s£x scandal case.
Asencio is accused of sharing a video involving the girl,
who was 16 at the time it was filmed, and doing so knowing she did not give her
permission for it to be taken. He insists he is innocent.
The centre-back has a rising status in the game and started
both Champions League semi-final legs against Arsenal after
becoming a first-team regular this season.
The video was allegedly filmed by former youth team-mates
Ferran Ruiz, 22, Andres Garcia, 22, and Juan Rodriguez, 23, in June 2023,
involving the girl and another who was 18 at the time.
Those three are accused of 'disclosure of secrets without
consent, and violation of privacy, distributing and sending videos to third
parties without consent, capturing and using minors for porn0graphic purposes
and possession of child pornography'.
Asencio and the three other players were arrested at Real
Madrid's training centre in September 2023 following a complaint lodged by the
mother of the 16-year-old girl who appears in the video.
Now AS reports that Asensio - who is charged with
'revealing secrets in conjunction with another of child porn0graphy' - could
face four years behind bars if he is found guilty.
Cadena Cope add that the alleged victim's lawyers want
£48,900 in compensation for her and a £16.86 fine per day for 10 months - a
request the 18-year-old will also make, the outlet adds.
At the time, Spanish media reported that one of the
footballers had recorded a consensual s£xual encounter with the young girl
before sending the video to the other players without her consent.
According to the court ruling, both women show symptoms
consistent with post-traumatic stress disorder, Spanish sports outlet AS
reported.
The judge at the Gran Canaria High Court said there
was enough evidence to support allegations of violation of privacy,
distribution of videos to third parties without the victims' knowledge or
consent, solicitation of a minor for porn0graphic purposes, and possession of
child porn0graphy.
Article 197 of Spain's Criminal Code states that any
individual convicted of recording and sharing an explicit video of a minor will
face between three-and-a-half and five years in prison.
