Despite reports coming out in recent months that Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio was no longer being investigated for the distribution of child pornography, the investigating magistrate has rejected an appeal to drop him as a suspect.
Asencio, 21, is one of four suspects in the case that is investigating four Real Madrid academy products for the distribution of child pornography, which began in late 2023. The case has been under investigation for some time, but it had been reported that Asencio was no longer under suspicion for his role in events.
However, as reported by El Pais, as carried by Diario AS, an appeal to drop Asencio as a suspect due to insufficient evidence has been rejected.
