João GustavoBrother of Marília Mendonça, spoke with Exclusivity with this column from Splash and commented on the lawsuit brought by the family of Henrique Bahia the singer’s producer, who also died in the plane crash. Bahia’s family is fighting for the recognition of the professional’s labor rights.
“It’s not a lawsuit against my family, it’s not something we have a relationship with,” says João Gustavo, continuing: “His family will always have a lot of affection, we’re not that close because they’re in one.” Live in another state.” And that was it. This closeness was difficult. What I have seen is that they have been fighting for Bahia to be considered an employee by the company, it has nothing to do with us.”
The lawsuit in court was revealed by George Freitas, father of Henrique Bahia. “May justice be done and may your employment be recognized on behalf of your legacy, your professionalism and all you have represented to those who have worked and lived with you!” he wrote on social media.
“You didn’t just work for an office/artist, you lived for your work 24 hours a day. You have given your blood in everything you have done. This fight will last until the end of all your family and friends my fat man.” , continued.
The lawsuit against Marília Mendonça’s team comes a year and seven months after the death of the singer and producer. Bahia’s family is asking for recognition of his three years of work at the Sertaneja.
