This Thursday, the NGO Me Too Brasil, which deals with harassment complaints, released a statement saying it has received complaints of harassment against Silvio Almeida. The organization did not present evidence or provide details about the accusations against the minister. In a note and a video posted on social media, Silvio Almeida says the accusations are false and without evidence and that he is a victim of persecution.

Anielle Franco, would be among the victims and, according to the website Metrópoles, had already complained to other people in the government about episodes of harassment by Almeida. State they discovered that some members of Lula’s team had been informed, about three months ago, of the minister’s accusation.

The complaint reached the Palácio do Planalto, but it was not pursued because Anielle did not formalize it, with the motivation that she did not want to harm the government.

After the allegations were made public, the government called on Almeida to provide clarification on the situation and said it would forward a letter to the CGU and the Public Prosecutor.
