247 -  Former Globo actor Mário Gomes said in an interview with F5Actor Roberto Carlos, from UOL, fears that the beachfront mansion where he lives with his wife and two children will be divided among other families. His argument is based on a fake news story, which he believes, attributed to the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, claiming that residences would be forcibly divided among other families.

"My wife and I are worried about losing our house," said the actor. Gomes believes that if former president Lula wins the presidential election in the second round, they will be left without a home. However, the actor may lose the house for another reason. The property was auctioned off by the courts to pay labor debts to seamstresses from the actor's former clothing factory in Paraná. 

According to the report, Gomes defaulted on payments to the garment factory workers. He owed salaries to 84 seamstresses, a debt estimated at the time at R$ 923. "To pay off the debt, the Labor Court ordered in 2011 that the property be auctioned off. It was sold for R$ 720, equivalent to 48% of its appraised value of R$ 1,5 million," says an excerpt from the report.
