David Luiz accused of threatening a woman | OneFootball

The defender David Luiz, currently playing for Pafos in Cyprus, has been accused by a woman of allegedly threatening her after having a romantic relationship, an accusation that the former Brazilian National Team player has denied.

The Ceará court confirmed to AFP that the alleged victim reported David, with whom she claims to have gone out when he played for Fortaleza at the beginning of the year.

According to the complaint leaked to the press, Francisca Karollainy Barbosa Cavalcante, a social worker, claims that the 38-year-old defender wrote a message threatening her family.

“You know I have money and power, so don’t try to be clever. It would be sad if your son had to pay the consequences of your actions” (…) “I can simply make you disappear,” the message reads.

The Ceará court did not provide details, as the case is under seal.

“I have never threatened anyone, I have never threatened this person, I have never been with this person in person,” David Luiz responded in a video released on Monday on Instagram, where he acknowledged that he had contacted the woman through social media.

“Unfortunately, things have gotten out of control (…) I made a mistake by exchanging messages with this person,” said the player.

David Luiz stated that his defense is taking “legal measures” and that he hopes “justice will be served as soon as possible.”
