Alves appears for the first time before the Barcelona Court to certify that he has not fled. The footballer was released from provisional prison on Monday after paying bail of one million euros.

Alves arrived at 9:20 a.m. accompanied by his lawyer, Inés Guardiola, for this procedure that he must do every Friday (this week one day before, because it is a holiday on Good Friday) While he remains free until his sentence for sexual assault is final, the court also made it a requirement for his freedom while he awaits a final sentence that he hand over his two passports.
