Jennifer Hermoso’s brother was the player’s support in the most complicated moments after Luis Rubiales’ unseeled kiss. This has been found during his statement today as a witness in the trial held at the National Court against the former president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) for the crimes of sexual assault and coercion.
Rafael Hermoso has ratified his sister’s version about how the events occurred after Rubiales planted a kiss on his mouth during the World Cup celebration in Sidney in August 2024 in the world’s light.
After the collection of medals, the players went to the changing rooms and there was Rafael. He hugged his sister and told him if he had seen Rubiales had given him a kiss. He hadn’t heard. “What a fabric …. And what have you done?” He asked. “Nothing has taken my head. What disgust has given me, ”replied his sister, who went to continue celebrating the historical triumph. “He said it with rage,” the brother snapped.
Next chapter that his brother recounts is on the return trip. Rafael was sleeping. Apparently, the coach, Jorge Vilda, had spent several times on the side of his seat to try to talk to him, until he finally succeeds.
“It came very affable, rising my sister, which I had meant in the championship and in the locker room. The tone was even ball. And suddenly he talked about the kiss. As if it were a trifle, something banal. He talked about a spoiled kiss of two people who are appreciated, without giving him any importance, ”explained the witness.
Then, he told him that Rubiales’ small daughters were crying and he was worried because his position could be in danger. Vilda reocnió that Ñe had sent the president to talk to him to try to convince his sister that on the scale in Doha they made a set to subtract importance to the kiss and that it was an action of love and friendship. “He told me that the best thing for everyone was to make that video. It dropped me that my sister was an age, that if things collaborated, things were going to do well but that if not, I didn’t know what could happen. He told me as is, ”he said beautiful.
The tone was thinning and taking tension little by little. “I told her that if my sister had said she was not going to do the video, she was not going to convince her of something she didn’t think she should do,” he said.
Then Vidal, according to his testimony, reminded him of “the good” that the Federation had protected with beautiful Jenni and the favors they had made. “I don’t know what he meant. Today I have no knowledge, neither she nor anyone, ”he said.
In a last attempt at Vilda for having Rafael to put out that he was, he launched a warning: “He told me the personal and professional consequences that all this could have for my sister.”
When Rafael met again with his sister, already in Madrid, at the exit of the plane, he saw her with her eyes to cry. He asked him not to talk to anyone about the subject of the kiss, that that day was to celebrate the victory and all the companions should be the protagonists.
But he disobeyed her. He granted an interview with a television sports program and asked about the kiss. He limited himself to qualifying him as an anecdote and denied that Vilda would have pressed him to soften the matter. “I lied to protect my sister,” he acknowledged. In that lie is to which the defenses are grabbed to subtract credibility to one of the few witnesses that the judge has not had to attract attention.
