The TSE (Superior Electoral Court) granted, this Sunday (16.Oct.2022), the right of reply to former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) in the profiles of Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ), Carla Zambelli (PL-SP), Mara Gabrielli (PSDB) and on the radio Young pan, after the channels publicized PT’s associations to the murder of the former mayor of Santo André (SP) Celso Daniel.

“Right of reply granted by the Electoral Justice against the misinformation and aggression of the candidate for the vice presidency of the Republic, Ms. Mara Gabrilli in this program, in an interview held on September 28, 2022.
“By propagating the untruth that former President Lula was related to the murder of the former Mayor of the Municipality of Santo André, Celso Daniel, Ms. Mara Gabrilli ignores the reality of the facts, since Lula was never even indicted or investigated for the murder in question.
“The crime that shocked Brazilian society, and to this day causes extreme commotion, had its investigations closed by the Civil Police of São Paulo, in 2021, which concluded that the former Mayor was the victim of a common crime, in an investigation that been under investigation since 2005.
“As already asserted by the Justice of the State of São Paulo and reinforced by Min. Alexandre de Moraes in Electoral Representation, those responsible for the crime were duly prosecuted and tried and, today, they serve their sentence.”
