Photograph: GettyThe mother of Spanish soccer federation chief Luis Rubiales, who faces backlash for his unsolicited kiss on player Jenni Hermoso, on Monday locked herself inside a church and announced a hunger strike to protest her son’s “inhumane treatment”, EFE news agency reported.
Angeles Bejar said her strike would last"until a solution is found to the inhumane and bloody hunt they are carrying out against my son with something he does not deserve", according to EFE. Rubiales was suspended on Saturday by FIFA following his unsolicited kiss on the mouth of the national team star during the awards ceremony after Spain's world cup win in Sydney.
According to EFE, Bejar stayed inside the parish church of Divina Pastora in Rubiales' hometown in southern Spain, Motril, with her sister after the parish priest left.
