Dylan GwinnThe Spanish government has opened an inquiry into Spanish Soccer Federation President Luis Rubiales after he kissed Spanish female soccer star Jennifer Hermoso on the lips following the country’s World Cup victory.
The inquiry comes after FIFA elected to suspend Rubiales for 90 days for the kiss. The legal proceeding was initiated by Spain’s Prosecutor’s Office, which informed Hermoso that she had 15 days to file a complaint against Rubiales. The inquiry stems from an incident last week as the Spanish women’s team was collecting their medals following their World Cup win over England. Hermoso was making her way down the reception line of Spanish soccer dignitaries. When she went in front of Rubiales, he put his hands on her head and kissed her on the mouth.
Jenni Hermoso said “she didn’t enjoy” being kissed by Spanish football president Luis Rubiales who has now apologised to any “people who felt hurt”
