A provisional release of Daniel Alves, last Monday (25)after paying a bail of 1 million euros (R$5.5 million), raised a series of questions about the Spanish penal system — which, unlike the Brazilian one, allows bail in case of heinous crimes, like the rape for which he was convicted. In Brazil, racism, torture, drug trafficking and terrorism are also part of the list of non-bailable crimes. Alves was sentenced to four years and six months for raping a woman in a club on December 31, 2022.
