Ronaldinho pleads innocence as he has been placed under house arrest in Paraguay

Brazilian legend Ronaldinho was arrested in Paraguay citing a fake passport but he insists he was taken by surprise to know that the ID card was not legal.

Ronaldinho and his brother Roberto Assis arrived in Asuncion to promote a book and the launch of an online casino. Upon arrival, both of them were arrested on 6th March for fake ID cards.

He had to spend a month in jail and was then placed under house arrest on 8th April. He will have to stay under house arrest in Paraguay until a verdict is given. But Ronaldinho is still claiming that he didn’t know the ID was fake.

Ronaldinho told Paraguayan TV station ABC Color: “We were totally surprised to learn that the documents were not legal. Since then our intention has been to cooperate with justice to clarify the fact, as we did from the beginning. From that moment until today, we have explained everything and facilitated everything that justice asked of us.”

“It was a hard blow, I never imagined I would go through a situation like this. All my life I have sought to reach the highest professional level and bring joy to people with my football. We hope that they can use and confirm everything we provide as soon as our possible in the case and that we can leave this situation.”

“Everything we do is under contracts that are managed by my brother, who is my manager. In this case, we came to participate in the launch of an online casino, as specified in the contract, and for the launch of the book ‘Craque da Vida’ that was organised with the company in Brazil that has the rights to exploit the book in Paraguay.”
