A serious legal case is shaking the world of Spanish football, specifically Real Madrid, following a request from the defense of a minor seeking a four-year prison sentence for Raul Asencio, a central player for the white club. Asencio is at the center of an accusation of "disclosure of secrets in conjunction with a crime ...," an extremely sensitive and serious matter that is progressing through the courts.

According to the formal accusation presented by the minor's defense, Raúl Asencio allegedly received a video and subsequently showed it to a third party. The severity of the requested penalty is based on Asencio's alleged knowledge of the material's circumstances. The defense argues that the player shared the video knowing that it had been recorded without the consent of the involved parties. Furthermore, it is emphasized that he was aware of the affected individuals' desire for the video to be removed from circulation. A crucial and aggravating element of the accusation is Asencio's alleged knowledge that one of the young people appearing in the content was a minor.

However, the case is not solely focused on Raul Asencio. The judicial investigation has extended its scope to other former Real Madrid players also implicated in the events. Juan Rodríguez, Ferran Ruiz, and Andrés García, who at one time shared a locker room with Asencio in the club's youth categories, have also been pointed out by the minor's defense. These three individuals are directly accused of having recorded the video in question and subsequently distributing it, further aggravating the nature of the imputed crimes.

The minor's defense has taken a firm step in the legal process by formally requesting the opening of an oral trial against Rodriguez, Ruiz, and García for the same charges of "disclosure of secrets and child pornography." This request marks a decisive stage in the case, moving it towards a prosecution phase that will determine the responsibilities of each of those involved.

The accusations, which involve the crimes of secret revelation, carry severe penalties under Spanish law and highlight the importance of protecting image and privacy, especially that of minors. The development of this legal process will be closely followed, not only for its intrinsic gravity but also for the involvement of figures linked to elite sports. The minor's defense seeks justice and an exemplary punishment for those they consider responsible for these serious acts.
