Details of the Clarification

In the statement, Gonçalves explains that in the video circulated by the media outlet, he is seen near the Lameiros voting station delivering food to members of his campaign team present at the location, specifically to a friend who was part of the team.

During this brief visit, an individual identified as a member of the PSD campaign began filming the candidate without his consent while he was conversing with his friend.

The candidate emphasizes that the video published by Diário de Notícias does not reflect the real context of the situation: he merely confronted the person recording about the lack of respect and privacy violation, asking them to stop filming. The episode was misrepresented and amplified unfairly, not corresponding to any act of aggression or inappropriate behavior.
