Valencia striker Rafa Mir conditionally released amid allegations of sexual assault

LLIRIA, Spain - Following his testimony regarding allegations of sexual assault, a judge in Spain has granted Valencia striker Rafa Mir conditional release, as confirmed by a local court on Wednesday.

Police arrested Mir, 27, on Monday after a woman filed a complaint against him. Mir's lawyer, Jaime Campaner, said the sexual relations were consensual.

The judge will now lead an investigation into the complaint to establish whether there is enough evidence for Mir to eventually stand trial or if the case should be closed.

Mir will have to appear in court regularly and is not allowed to leave the country while the investigation remains open.
