His church appearance follows a Catalonia court’s decision to overturn his 2024 conviction pending Supreme Court review.

Overview

  • Footage recorded on October 26 shows Alves speaking at an Elim Pentecostal youth event in Girona, with the video circulating widely on October 27.
  • In his remarks, he said faith has guided his personal reconstruction and described making a pact with God.
  • The Catalonia High Court revoked his 2024 sexual assault conviction in March 2025, citing insufficient evidence and testimonial divergences.
