Ronaldinho has failed to show at a parliamentary hearing on crypto pyramids, and could face jail time if he refuses to attend another hearing
later this month.
Per Sportes and Livecoins, the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies’ Financial Pyramids Committee
had summoned the former Barcelona star and Brazilian nation team player on Thursday August 24.
But
Ronaldinho failed to appear at the hearing,
drawing the ire of the lawmakers who issued him with a summons.
The commission’s president
Aureo Ribeiro MP responded by stating that
if Ronaldinho fails to attend another hearing, he would ask a court to issue a special warrant that would allow police officers to “forcefully” bring the former football start to the chamber.
MPs want to
speak to Ronaldinho about his alleged involvement in the companies companies
18kRonaldinho and LBLV. In particular, lawmakers want to know exactly
what the ex-Brazil international has to do with 18kRonaldinho.
