Jenni Hermoso intends to appeal in Luis Rubiales World Cup kiss case – reports
The BBC has contacted Hermoso’s lawyer.
The High Court ruling also banned Rubiales from going within a 200m radius of Hermoso and from communicating with her for one year, the court said in a statement.
Prosecutors had demanded a prison sentence for Rubiales, who has also said he will appeal against the verdict.
During the 2023 World Cup, as Spain’s players received their medals after defeating England in Sydney to win, Rubiales grabbed Hermoso by the head and kissed her on the lips.
He later described the kiss as an “act of affection” and told the court that he was “absolutely sure” Hermoso had given her consent.
In her testimony earlier this month, Hermoso insisted that she had not given consent and that the incident had “stained one of the happiest days of my life”.
The incident sparked nationwide protests and calls for the resignation of Rubiales.
