The ephemeral participation of the Mexican influencer Dania Mendez on the reality show ‘Big Brother Brazil’ left a whole controversy in the South American country. The Civil Police of Rio de Janeiro is investigating the alleged sexual harassment against the Mexican woman that led to the elimination of the two accused participants.
The rapper MC Guimé and the martial arts fighter Antonio Carlos Junior ‘Cara de Sapato’ will have to testify before the authorities after what happened in the show in which they behaved inappropriately with Dania.
Delegate Viviane Costa told CNN that a letter was sent to TV Globo, the television station that broadcasts ‘Big Brother Brasil’, requesting the complete recordings without cuts of everything that the cameras captured during the party last Wednesday, the day the events occurred.
“Local agents will analyze the recordings to understand the context of the alleged criminal practices of the two investigated (…) After analyzing the images and the testimonies, the delegate will decide the steps to follow,” she told CNN.
For her part, the president of OAB Mulher RJ, the highest representative entity for Brazilian lawyers, Flávia Pinto Ribeiro, told the same channel that the actions carried out by the two artists against the influencer “They are clear and clear attitudes of the crime of sexual importunation” and He stressed that Dania would not be required to testify.
“The images speak for themselves. The change in law is important because before it was a private action in which it was up to the victim to file a complaint. And today the importunation is a crime of unconditional public criminal action, that is, the Public Ministry is the holder of that action. The victim does not need to be heard”, explained Pinto Ribeiro.
What happened?
Through social networks A video has circulated in which it is seen when the rapper MC Guime touches Dania’s hip, and she immediately reacts by removing the artist’s hand to prevent it from reaching another part of his body.
In another event that occurred the same day, The wrestler “Cara de Sapato” began to bother Dania Méndez and in another video it can be seen how he tried to kiss her against her will.
On the case, the Mexican broke the silence by returning to the reality show ‘La Casa de lod Famosos’. Both in the Sunday broadcast and in conversation with her housemates, she talked about her three days in the Brazilian reality show.
“For me it was something very strong and unexpected, but the laws there are respected and the way they care for women is appreciated, For me it was somewhat complicated because something that was fun turned into an unexpected moment”, declared Dania inside the confessional when the presenters of the program interviewed her.
