Businessman Luciano Hang, owner of the Havan chain of stores based in Brusca, in the Itajai Valley, was in Brasilia (DF) during the September 7 parade this Wednesday.

Hang appeared with President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) at the Tribuna de Honra, where other officials accompanied the parade.

Along with Luciano was also the President of Portugal, Marcelo Nuno Duarte Rebelo de Souza. The presidents of the STF (Federal Supreme Court, Chamber of Deputies and Senate) did not attend.

Hang reports that President Bolsonaro invited him to take part in the event, just like in 2019, in the last parade before the pandemic.

On his wife Andrea Hang’s social media, Luciano appears in a video of the public cheering next to the president, at the site of the parade. “Pure emotions! September 7 is special,” he says.

In another video posted on his profile, Luciano waves to the parade crowd and runs with a Brazilian flag to cheer on the businessman’s fans.

Andrea’s profile also featured a video of the audience praying for Brazil. “We want our president to continue to fight for our democracy, for our families, for our freedom of opinion and expression. Against everything that is or comes from evil. Our colors will always be green and yellow,” he says.

In the afternoon, Luciano, along with his supporters, took part in the traditional motoziata of President Bolsonaro in Brasilia.

Operation PF

Participation in the event comes 15 days after Federal Police executed a search and seizure warrant against Hang and seven other businessmen.

Hanga was accused of sending anti-democratic messages in a WhatsApp group with other Brazilian businessmen.

At the time, Luciano took his social media off the air. He remains without access to Instagram, Tiktok and Facebook profiles.

“I believe that Minister Alexandre de Moraes was misled because the decision was based solely on an article by journalist Guilherme Amado from the Metropoles website published on August 17, 2022. Then came PT’s campaign coordinator, Senator Randolph Rodriguez (Rede-AP), demanding bank account freezes, jail time and, above all, social media bans to shut me up,” the businessman commented.
