There Was Insufficient Evidence To Prove Antony Assaulted Gabriela Cavallin – Sao Paulo

A police investigation into domestic violence allegations involving Antony has concluded with no charges to be brought. Recall that the Manchester United winger has been the subject of a police investigation in Brazil after ex-girlfriend, Gabriela Cavallin accused him of assault and threatening behaviour.

According to Sao Paulo police, there was insufficient evidence of any wrongdoing by the MUFC footballer, so they have concluded their investigation into the matter and will not be bringing any charges against Antony.

Gabriela’s lawyers said, “It should be noted that there is overwhelming evidence that leaves no doubt that Gabriela was the victim, here in Brazil and in England, of physical and psychological aggression. Therefore, we await the statement from the Public Prosecutor’s Office, trusting and hoping that a formal criminal complaint will be filed against former player Anthony, who should be prosecuted and, ultimately, convicted for his multiple acts of violence against women.”

Antony’s lawyers added, “The defense always believed that the investigations would demonstrate Antony’s innocence.”

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992, beating Nottingham Forest 1–0 in the second to win that competition for the first time as well.
