Iran clarifies Ronaldo’s situation regarding potential legal consequences for rule violation

Iran has refuted recent reports suggesting that Cristiano Ronaldo, the Al-Nassr forward, is facing 99 lashes for kissing artist Fatemeh Hamami. This incident occurred during Ronaldo’s visit to Iran last month with his Saudi Pro League club to compete against Persepolis in the AFC Champions League.

Before the match, Ronaldo had a meeting with Hamami in Tehran, where she presented him with two portraits. Notably, Hamami had painted these portraits using her feet due to her paralysis. During their encounter, Ronaldo hugged her and kissed her on the head. Subsequently, reports emerged claiming that legal charges had been filed against the five-time Ballon d’Or winner for alleged adultery.

It is essential to understand that Iranian law prohibits displays of affection between a man and a woman who are not married. However, the Iranian embassy in Spain has released a statement denying the issuance of any court ruling against any international athlete in Iran. The statement goes on to emphasize that such unfounded news can divert attention from pressing matters such as crimes against humanity and war crimes affecting the Palestinian nation.

The statement further underscores that Cristiano Ronaldo’s visit to Iran on September 18 and 19 for an official football match was met with a warm reception from both the people and the authorities. His sincere and humane meeting with Fatemeh Hamami earned praise and admiration from the public and the country’s sports authorities alike.
