ACM Neto faces legal acquittal and political disputes in Bahia
ACM Neto, candidate for the Governor of Bahia, is involved in several political developments. The Regional Electoral Court of Bahia (TRE-BA) has absolved him in a legal action regarding an incident where women participated in a campaign parade semi-nude. The court ruled there was no proof of his prior knowledge or authorship of the act, though restrictions remain for his coalition and other candidates regarding similar practices.
In the municipality of Barra, Neto visited a site intended for a polyclinic, questioning Governor Jerônimo Rodrigues' claims that construction is underway. Neto accused the governor of making false promises ahead of the election, noting the site lacks workers and equipment despite being announced two years ago.
Additionally, political mobilization continues in the region, with leaders such as Expedito Rigaud and Siméia Queiroz inaugurating an electoral committee to support the candidacies of ACM Neto, Hassan, and Cacá Leão. Neto's political trajectory is noted for his leadership within the União Brasil party and his history as the former mayor of Salvador.
