​Angeles Bejar, the mother of Luis Rubiales (president of the Spanish Football Federation – RFEF), has announced a hunger strike until a solution is found to end the “inhuman and bloody hunt” for her son, who kissed her player Jenny Hermoso after winning the World Cup.

Luis Rubiales’ mother asks soccer player Jenny Hermoso to “tell the truth”

According to Marca, Bejar and her sister came to the Divina Pastora church in Motril, southern Spain, on Monday morning and said they would remain locked in the parish “for an indefinite time, day and night” until justice is done for Luis Rubiales .

Ángeles Bejar is convinced that her son “doesn’t deserve what’s happening to him”, is “incapable of harming anyone” and doesn’t understand why everyone is “brutal towards him”.

She also asks soccer player Jenny Hermoso to “tell the truth” and “stand by the version she had at the beginning of events” (no, the player wouldn’t say at the time that the kiss was consensual, but later said Rubiales was lying).

Rubiales flatly refused to resign over last Sunday’s incident in Sydney. The players and coaches of the women’s team are asking him to leave, and the government also wants him to leave, writes News.ro.

FIFA opened disciplinary proceedings against Rubiales on Thursday and announced on Saturday that he had been suspended from national and international football for three months pending the outcome of the investigation.

The RFEF called the regional federations for an “extraordinary and urgent” meeting on Monday to “assess the situation at the forum” following Rubiales’ suspension, a forum spokesman said on Sunday.

Spain won the Women’s World Cup with a 1-0 victory over England on Sunday, August 20, in the final at Sydney’s Olympic Stadium.
