Senador Guiomard councilwoman denounces intimidation

In Senador Guiomard, Councilwoman Ivanete Figueiredo (PSD) issued a formal note of repudiation against Councilman Sandro Cunha following a confrontation during a municipal chamber session on Tuesday (13).

Figueiredo reported that Cunha adopted a “truculenta e descontrolada” (truculent and uncontrolled) posture intended to intimidate and silence her while she was speaking. The councilwoman stated that this was not an isolated incident and characterized the behavior as an attempt to undermine women in positions of power. She emphasized that the plenary should be a space for democratic debate rather than authoritarianism.
