Businessman Pablo Marçal (PRTB) wants presenter José Luiz Datena (PSDB) to compensate him in the amount of R$ 100 thousand as moral damages because of the seat given by the toucan in the debate between candidates for Mayor of São Paulo promoted by “TV Cultura” . In an application filed with the São Paulo Court, Marçal pointed out the “adverse effects” caused by the attack which he classified as “planned”.
Furthermore, it was stated that there were fractures to the spine and wrist – this contradicts the Legal Medical Institute (IML) analysis which stated that there were only injuries. The chair came after Pablo Marçal insinuated allegations of sexual harassment against the presenter. Datena was sued for this reason, but the action was archived by the São Paulo Court.
After the attack, the former coach was taken by ambulance to Sírio-Libanês hospital, where he underwent a CT scan and MRI. According to the press office, Pablo Marçal is having difficulty breathing.
Datena called the incident an act of self-defense, but expressed regret and stated that he would not repeat the action. Marçal’s new action against Datena occurred in the 30th Civil Court of São Paulo.
