The São Paulo State Attorney's Office filed a complaint against Najila Trindade, the woman who said Neymar raped her.

The prosecution accuses her of slanderous accusation, claiming that she knew she had not been raped, and extortion.

If the court receives the complaint, Najila becomes the defendant.

Najila's lawyer, Cosme Araújo, said he could only comment after he had access to the copy of the complaint. "It will be good for us to be near a judge. There are many things to clarify that you will know at the right time," he said.

Yes, shame on this woman. Everyone knows famous Brazilian soccer players never rape anyone, not ever. As everyone knows, fine Brazilian men don't rape just anyone.

Jair Bolsonaro, the far-right candidate who has been compared to President Donald Trump, is the winner of Brazil’s presidential election, ushering in what one political observer called “a dramatic swing to the right in the world’s fourth-largest democracy.”

“We cannot continue flirting with communism,” said the 63-year-old member of the far-right Social Liberal Party during an acceptance speech on Sunday. “We are going to change the destiny of Brazil.”

Bolsonaro, who has been a politician since shortly after leaving the country’s military in 1988, achieved a sweeping victory despite calling a congresswoman and colleague not “worth raping” and “very ugly” in 2014. A judge ordered the conservative politician to pay Maria do Rosario more than $2,500 in compensation for his remarks.

The former army captain claimed in a 2011 interview that his sons were “very well educated” and consequently incapable of falling in love with a Black woman. He also has referred to immigrants as the “scum of the earth.”
