Councilor Amanda Paschoal (PSOL) filed a representation Friday with the São Paulo regional electoral prosecutor's office seeking an eight-year ineligibility ruling against Regina Nunes.
Paschoal alleges that Regina Nunes, the first lady and MDB pre-candidate for state deputy, gained an unfair advantage through the use of a public servant. Breno de Souza Santos, assigned to the Municipal Secretariat of Human Rights, received R$ 5,637 monthly and produced videos for the first lady's social media during business hours.
Records show the employee accompanied Regina Nunes on pre-campaign events since February. His dismissal was published in the Official Gazette on Wednesday, one day after Folha questioned the city hall.
The municipal administration denied that Breno provided services to the first lady and stated he performed his duties. Paschoal requests a fine, an ineligibility declaration and referral of the case to the Public Prosecutor's Office for investigation of administrative improbity.
