Puerto Rican superstar Ricky Martin filed a lawsuit Wednesday against his nephew accusing him of extortion, malicious persecution, abuse of law and damages stemming from false allegations of sexual abuse.
The lawsuit stated that from October 2021 to January 2022, Sánchez would send up to 10 messages a day to Martin, the majority of them “meaningless diatribes without any particular purpose.”
It also accused Sánchez of publishing Martin’s private number on Instagram, which forced the singer to change his number. Several months then went by without Sánchez sending a message until he requested the protection order in July against Martin, according to the lawsuit. It also said Sánchez falsely alleged that he had had a romantic relationship with Martin for seven months and that Martin supposedly did not want the relationship to end and kept calling Sánchez with frequency.It also said two restraining orders had previously been filed against Sánchez in an unrelated stalking case.
The nephew of Ricky Martin withdrew an order of protection request against the singer during a virtual court hearing in Puerto Rico Thursday and asked the judge to drop the case.
