Messi's brother given 30-month jail for carrying firearms
Matias Messi, older brother of Barcelona and Argentina forward Lionel Messi, has been handed a 30-month suspended prison sentence for illegally possessing a firearm. However, Matias will not go to jail as he has been asked to perform community service. The firearm was reportedly retrieved from a blood-stained speedboat, which Matias crashed in the ParanÃ¡ River last year.
