The Ceará Civil Police closed the investigation into former Flamengo and Fortaleza defender David Luiz after social worker Francisca Karollainy Barbosa Cavalcante accused him of making threats . The case was handled by the 2nd Women's Defense Department (DDM) in Fortaleza, and the final report found a lack of evidence against the player. The information was initially released by journalist Diogo Dantas of the newspaper O Globo.
According to the police chief in charge, Rachel de Queiroz Moreira, the investigation will be closed due to a lack of evidence to support the accusation . According to the document, the technical evidence and statements collected during the investigation did not prove any criminal conduct attributed to David Luiz .
During the investigation, experts analyzed the complainant's cell phone and found no messages, records, or behavior that constituted a threat . The former Flamengo player had publicly declared his innocence, stating that he never had contact of this nature with the social worker.
"Based on the facts outlined above, the technical evidence, and the testimonies included in the case file, the information gathered to date has been insufficient for this Police Authority to substantiate the indictment of the suspect , considering the lack of even minimal material evidence of the crimes. Therefore, I hereby refrain from pursuing any criminal indictment and suggest that the case be dismissed, subject to better judgment," the report states.
The investigation also identified inconsistencies in Francisca Karollainy's testimony. Conversations extracted from her cell phone revealed a discussion with a friend about the possibility of colluding to incriminate the player , raising doubts about the credibility of the accusation.
Furthermore, employees of the hotel mentioned in the testimony were interviewed and denied David Luiz's presence at the hotel on the date mentioned by the complainant . Therefore, the Civil Police concluded that there was insufficient material to indict the former defender and recommended that the case be closed.

Flamengo takes to the field this Sunday (5), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Bahia at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. Leader of the competition, Rubro-Negro is looking for another victory away from home to maintain the top of the table and recent numbers bring plenty of reasons for confidence .
Flamengo 's last loss to Bahia came six years ago, on August 4, 2019, when the Tricolor won 3-0 at Fonte Nova . Since then, the clubs have faced each other 12 times, with the Rio de Janeiro team winning 12 consecutive matches—an absolute dominance.
Of these duels, five were played on Bahian soil (three at Arena Fonte Nova and two in Pituaçu) . In the overall history of the stadium where this Sunday's match will take place, the teams have met 27 times in the Brasileirão: eight wins for each side and 11 draws.
Flamengo also boasts solid numbers away from Maracanã in this season's championship. In 11 away matches, the team has won seven, drawn two, and lost only two, achieving a 69.7% success rate . This performance ranks them as the competition's best away team, alongside Palmeiras.
In addition to their unbeaten record against Bahia, Flamengo will be defending a historic record under Rogério Ceni. The Tricolor coach has never beaten the Rubro-Negro: 16 matches and 16 losses . Ceni's teams have scored just six goals, while Flamengo has found the net 31 times in these matches.

The Ecuadorian National Team released this Saturday (4) the list of players called up for the next FIFA Date, but a big name was left out : Gonzalo Plata, Flamengo striker, was not called up by coach Sebastián Beccacece . As a result, the player will not participate in the friendlies against the United States and Mexico.
A starter for much of the national team's recent cycle, Plata has been included from the start in six of Ecuador's last ten games . His absence, therefore, is seen internally as a one-off rather than a permanent loss of place.
Among the players playing in Brazil, only Alan Franco (Atlético-MG) and Félix Torres (Corinthians) appear on Beccacece's list . Therefore, coach Filipe Luís will be able to count on the striker for training during the break.
Ecuador takes the field on Friday (10) to face the United States in Texas. Afterwards, the team travels to Zapopan, Mexico, where they face the home team on Tuesday (14). Both matches will be friendly matches.
The news was received calmly at Ninho do Urubu. So far, no Flamengo player has been called up for international commitments. Therefore, Filipe Luís will be able to count on the full squad for the classic against Botafogo , which will be played on Wednesday (15), for the Brasileirão.
