Former Wimbledon finalist's ex-girlfriend files for restraining order after 'finding hidden camera'

He also made the final of Wimbledon in 2002, only to lose to Australian star Lleyton Hewitt.

According to The Sun, model Araceli Torrado has appeared in court to ratify her complaint.

She has accused Nalbandian of harassment and stalking and reportedly found a hidden camera at a home he had rented for her.

Araceli has demanded the seizure of Nalbandian's electronic devices.

The camera in question was reportedly found in the air conditioning in her bedroom in June,

Araceli has handed over a video of the moment her brother made the shock discovery, as well as an alleged confession from Nalbandian confirming he had installed the camera.

​The initial court probe was 'shelved' but an appeal court ruled Araceli should be allowed to give evidence.

Lawyers reportedly lodged an application to overturn the decision.

Speaking after giving evidence, Araceli said: “It was a good step being able to talk and give my side of the story.

“I’ve been waiting for this moment for months, since I filed the complaint halfway through the year.

“I feel relieved knowing this has become public and the justice system has listened to me.”

She also told media in Argentina: “Nalbandian filmed me and recorded me for enough time to have footage and images of me naked and other private moments involving me, my family and my friends.

“I feel panic and anxiety at what he could have on his phone or on an application.

“We want a court order for the seizure of his electronic devices.”

Nalbandian allegedly told his ex-girlfriend that he hadn't seen anything due to 'internet problems'.

The judicial ruling on Araceli's requests is primed to be announced before Christmas.

Araceli’s lawyer, Martin Olari Ugrotte, said his client had been helped by a victim and witness assistance unit since July.

And Araceli thanked fans for their support on Instagram last month.
