It was previously revealed that Dehaini announced his departure from the Citizenship Party in the wake of news of his marriage to the teenager.

The Public Prosecutor's Office of Paraná (MPPR) reported that there is an ongoing investigation into Kuane's mother's promotion.
Banda B reported that "one of the main questions" relates to the promotion of the young bride's mother so shortly after the wedding.
