João Marcelo Gilberto, son of composer João Gilberto and singer Astrud Gilberto, was arrested by judge Luciana Fiala de Siqueira Carvalho for failing to comply with a court decision.
According to information from columnist Ancelmo Gois, from the newspaper O Globo, João Marcelo did not comply with the court decision that determined the exception of publications made on social networks. The post attacked his ex-wife, Adriana Magalhães.
João Marcelo even accused Adriana of “kidnapping” the couple’s daughter. João Gilberto’s heirs live in the United States and therefore, the Trial was formalized at Interpol.
Speaking to the columnist, João Marcelo’s lawyer, Deborah Sztajnberg, stated that he would appeal the decision and said that he was “only giving his version of the story on Facebook”.
