TRE-SP maintains conviction of Pablo Marçal for irregular advertising during campaign
The São Paulo Regional Electoral Court (TRE-SP) denied, on Thursday (13), an appeal by businessman Pablo Marçal (PRTB) and upheld his conviction for irregular electoral propaganda during the campaign to the City of São Paulo in 2024. The sentence determines that the former candidate pay a fine of $ 15,000.
The lawsuit was filed by the current mayor of the state capital, Ricardo Nunes (MDB), after Marçal released, on social networks, accusations of domestic violence against the mayor, who at the time competed for reelection.
The video published by Marçal questioned Nunes about a police report registered by his wife, Regina Carnovale, in 2011, in which the mayor was accused of domestic violence, threat and injury.

In the video, Marçal said: “Ricardo Nunes, why did his wife register the police report? Be man and assume: Why did she do this? At the time, Nunes initially denied the accusations, but later acknowledged that there was a “disagreement” with his wife, although he denied any physical aggression.
The rapporteur of the case, Judge Rogério Cury, stressed that electoral propaganda violated the need to balance the freedom of manifestation with liability for abuse, according to the fundamental rights and guarantees provided for in article 5, items IV and V, of the Federal Constitution.
It is still appealed to the Superior Electoral Court (TSE).
