“We had sex once, seven years ago… I had long buried our story in my heart, as you had no intention of taking any responsibility. But then, why did you come looking for me again, to take me to your house and force me to have sex with you? ".
This is the post published on social media in the days by the Chinese tennis player Peng Shuai, who denounced being sexually assaulted by the former Chinese vice-premier Zhang Gaoli, triggering a story that aroused indignation and international concern, also for the eclipse, for many "forced", the athlete, who only after several weeks from the outbreak of the case gave news of himself .
Instead, on November 2, Peng went out into the open, but her message was immediately obscured by Chinese censorship. The followers, however, had time to photograph the post. Which has now been released.
"I have no proof, and it was impossible to keep any trace of what happened - explained the tennis player - That afternoon, at first I said no and I burst into tears. I had dinner with you and your wife, Kang Jie. Hai I kept talking and saying so many things, to get the thoughts out of my mind. After dinner, you said that you had never forgotten me in those seven years, and that I should be nice to you, and so on ... I felt overwhelmed by panic , but I gave in. Yes, we had sex. "
"Even at the risk of my life, I want to tell the truth about you ... - Peng also wrote - But even if I risk disintegrating, like an egg thrown against a rock. I'm ready - he concluded - to tell the truth about you" .
