Spain’s Ex-Football Chief Trial Over Forced Kiss Ends
The trial of Spain’s former football chief, Luis Rubiales over the forced kiss he gave star forward, Jenni Hermoso wrapped up on Friday, with a verdict expected in several weeks.
New Telegraph recalls that Rubiales is accused of sexual assault for kissing Hermoso in 2023 following Spain’s triumph at the women’s World Cup in Australia, as well as coercion for allegedly trying to convince the player to downplay the incident afterwards.
The global outcry over the kiss forced Rubiales to resign in disgrace and thrust the spotlight on the prevalence of macho culture and sexism in sports.
