Enzo Pérez's father arrested over a sexual abuse complaint in Mendoza | OneFootball

The father of Enzo Pérez, a modern-day River icon who is currently at Argentinos Juniors, was arrested in Mendoza. Carlos Francisco Pérez, 68, a resident of the town of Maipú, was taken into custody on Monday night under the jurisdiction of the Coquimbito substation following a complaint of simple sexual abuse against a 12-year-old girl. The case was assigned to prosecutor María de las Mercedes Moya.

The complaint was filed by Pérez’s current partner after her younger daughter told her about an incident that had occurred days earlier inside the family home. According to the Mendoza newspaper El Sol, the event allegedly took place on Saturday night, at a time when the girl was on the ground floor of the house while her mother was upstairs.

According to the girl’s account, the man allegedly tried to hug her and kiss her on the mouth, and told her, “when are we going to be together.” The girl said she refused and moved away from the place. After learning what had happened, the mother decided to call 911 and formally file the complaint in court.

The case is currently under full investigation. There have been no public statements so far from the entourage of footballer Enzo Pérez regarding the matter.
