The removal is related to a definitive criminal conviction by the Federal Regional Court of the 1st Region (TRF-1) for witness corruption. Initially, Mariúva was sentenced to 3 years and 9 months in prison. The conviction became final on April 14 of this year.
According to the judge, the definitive conviction resulted in the suspension of the councilor's political rights. Even after reporting the case to the Chamber, Mariúva continued to participate in legislative activities, including sessions held on July 29th and August 5th.
As a result, the magistrate ordered the councilor to be removed and her salary suspended. The decision, however, does not determine the definitive loss of the mandate nor the immediate installation of a substitute.
