She initially reported a rape to the Las Vegas Police Department on June 13, 2009 – the day after she had met Ronaldo in the nightclub and the alleged incident took place.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s representatives claimed that the story was a journalistic fiction based on documents which are unsigned and where the parties are not identified.
