The cyber crimes unit of Rio de Janeiro's police heard the testimony of a Brazilian model on Wednesday, 11 September, part of an investigation linked to her rape allegation against soccer star Neymar.

Investigators in Rio are specifically looking into Neymar's posting on social media of images and messages of the Brazilian model without authorisation, a possible violation of her online privacy.

A separate investigation into the model's rape accusations against Neymar at a Paris hotel in May was shut down by a judge earlier this month, citing a lack of evidence against the player.

This week, police in Sao Paulo indicted the model for procedural fraud, slanderous denunciation and extortion.

Coming out of police offices Wednesday, the model's lawyer, Cosme Araujo, said he is looking into pressing charges in Paris.

Neymar has always denied the accusation and said their relations were consensual.
