Ex-Manchester United Star Anderson Faces 30-Day Jail Term for Alimony Arrears
Posted : 12 September 2024
Anderson, the former Manchester United and Brazil midfielder, faces a 30-day prison sentence in Porto Alegre for failing to pay £45,000 in alimony to his ex-wife and children.
The ruling, made by a family court last week, allows him to serve his sentence under semi-imprisonment conditions, where he can work or study during the day and return to the prison only at night.
This legal issue is not Anderson's first encounter with the law, as he was previously implicated in a Bitcoin scam involving £4.7 million.
