Pablo Marçal is Target of Representation to Electoral MP for Saying 'Every Practitioner of Afro-Brazilian Religions is Defeated'

oglobo9 September 2026 at 12:31

Pablo Marçal, candidate from PRTB, became the target of a representation to the Electoral Public Ministry for alleged religious racism and hate speech. The representation was filed after statements considered offensive to Afro-Brazilian religions. The Electoral Public Ministry is the body responsible for investigating and prosecuting electoral crimes and violations involving hatred, discrimination, or racism in the electoral context. The case involves issues of religious freedom and protection of communities that practice Afro-Brazilian religions, such as candomblé and umbanda.
