    The word ā€˜alleviationā€™ means ā€˜the act of making something bad such as pain or problems less severeā€™. This word is inappropriate here. The correct word ā€˜allegationā€™. It means ā€˜a statement, made without giving proof, that someone has done something wrong or illegalā€™. One of the players against whom an allegation was made, an England international, is understood to be claiming he has an alibi. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
