The defense also maintains that the disclosure of the case occurred on the day of the launch of Malu's pre-candidacy for state deputy and classifies the episode as political gender violence.

In the request presented to the Court, the defense requests that the protective measures be expanded to prohibit Mario Luiz Moreno Junior from disclosing images or information about the councilor and requests that, in the event of further non-compliance, his preventive detention be ordered.
