Aurea Gym partner dispute prompts police intervention in Belém
Aurea Gym, a luxury fitness club in Belém charging about R$1,800 a month, is embroiled in a partnership conflict between co‑owners Ronaldo Cohen and Khalil Nassar, each holding a 50% stake. The disagreement surfaced after Cohen alleged he had been removed from the company's bank accounts and was no longer recognized as an investor.
Cohen arrived at the gym on a truck and began removing furniture and equipment registered under his CPF, triggering a disturbance that required police involvement. Nassar used social media to calm members, stating that the removed items would be replaced and the quality of services would remain unchanged. Legal negotiations are ongoing, and Cohen has not issued a public response. The gym, inaugurated earlier this year, is among the first luxury fitness centers in the city.
