Former Brazil and Barcelona legend Ronaldinho Gaucho is adapting quickly to life in a Paraguayan jail, the head of the facility says.
The first photo of football legend in a Paraguayan jail was released Monday following his arrest for using a fake passport.
“In broad terms he is doing very well,” prison warden Blas Vera told Reuters in a telephone interview.
“I see he is in good spirits, just like you see him on television, always smiling.”
Vera said that Ronaldinho and his brother Roberto Assis, who were arrested on Friday for using a false Paraguayan passport, would present their case to a judge on Tuesday.
Reuters also reported that the pair’s lawyer, Sergio Queiroz said he had asked a court to release them from jail and put them in house arrest.
