Bruno Henrique of Flamengo charged, faces possible 2️⃣-year ban | OneFootball

The Prosecution Office of the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) denounced Bruno Henrique, Flamengo's striker, for manipulating results on this Friday (1).

Information from the Uol portal.

The Prosecution Office of the entity had until the next day 6 to manifest itself after having concluded the report on the case.

He runs the risk of being suspended for up to two years for having forced a yellow card in a duel against Santos, in the 2023 Brasileirão.

There is still no date for the trial.

The complaint is based on the evidence of the criminal lawsuit filed against Bruno Henrique, who, according to prints of conversations attached, would have made it clear to his brother Wander Nunes Pinto Junior when he would take the card that would leave him suspended.

Wander, then, confirms that he will make bets on a betting site after such privileged information.

Bruno Henrique was denounced based on two articles of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD): 243 (1st paragraph) and 243-A.

Article 243 deals with "acting deliberately, in a way that is detrimental to the team being defended". And there is the aggravation of having taken financial advantage. The predicted punishment ranges from 360 to 720 days.

The second article talks about "acting, in a way contrary to sports ethics, with the purpose of influencing the result of a match, test or equivalent". With a penalty that ranges from 12 to 24 matches.

There is a possibility that the 34-year-old player will have a preventive suspension requested by Luis Otávio Veríssimo Teixeira, the president of the STJD.

Bruno Henrique was preserved in the duel against Atlético-MG on the last Thursday (31). And he is quoted to return to Flamengo's starting team on Sunday (3), against Ceará.
