An unnamed witness in a Spain pornography case has accused Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea and a convicted adult video mogul of setting up an encounter in 2012 with two other football players at which she and another woman were beaten and forced to have sex against their will.
In testimony quoted Friday by Eldiario.es, the witness, who is under police protection, said that in 2012 she was threatened and coerced into having sexual relations with Iker Muniain and another under-21 football player.
In testimony quoted Friday by Eldiario.es, the witness, who is under police protection, said that in 2012 she was threatened and coerced into having sexual relations with Iker Muniain and another under-21 football player.
According to El Pais, a police report allegedly links De Gea, Munain and Francisco Roman “Isco” Alarcon Suarez to the testimony, and they cite their police sources. El Diario and El Confidencial also cite police sources.
The witness testimony is part of the case against jailed pornography empresario Ignacio Allende Fernandez, known as Torbe, who was convicted in April on child pornography, sexual exploitation, sexual aggression, human trafficking for pornography, extortion, blackmail and tax fraud.
In her 2015 testimony, the unnamed witness, known to the police as TP3, said that she was taken to a five-star Madrid hotel by Fernandez and forced into an encounter with two football players against her will. She testified that Fernandez told her she and another woman would be paid well.
The newspaper cites police reports that state that Fernandez ordered her to “do whatever the football players wanted” and told her she would be well paid. When she refused, Fernandez reportedly grabbed her by the arm and told her she and the other woman would do as he said.
According to the newspaper account of the police report: “The witness known as TP3 as well as the other woman were sexually abused and when they refused they were also hit. Following the sexual encounter they were threatened to remain silent about what happened in the hotel room. Neither TP3 nor the other woman were paid for the encounter.”
El Diario also said that the witness known as TP3 later identified the two football players as Muniain and another U-21 player and that De Gea himself and set up the hotel room meeting with help from Fernandez.
De Gea is currently with the Spain national team for the European Championship. Spain play Czech Republic on Monday.
Spanish national team officials have not commented on the news, but AS reports that De Gea will address the media later on Friday.
The 25-year-old De Gea and Muniain, now 23, played together in the U-21 Euros in 2013 with Spain winning the tournament held in Israel.
