From 'Black Bloc', Caetano criticizes the ban on masks.
A singer and songwriter from Bahia appears with his face covered by a sheet in a photo from Mídia Ninja with the caption: "It's symbolic violence to prohibit the use of masks. On September 07th, everyone should go to the streets masked." The PMDF (Military Police of the Federal District) warns that, to guarantee security and social order, all masked individuals will be detained until they identify themselves during the events taking place next Saturday.
247 – On the Mídia Ninja Facebook page, singer Caetano Veloso appeared with his face covered by a sheet, under the caption: "Caetano Black Block": "It's symbolic violence to prohibit the use of masks. On September 07th, everyone should go to the streets masked."
The commander-general of the PMDF (Military Police of the DF), Jooziel Melo Freire, informed this Thursday morning (5) that to guarantee security and social order, all masked people will be detained until they identify themselves during the events that will take place next Saturday, September 7th holiday, on the streets of the federal capital. The police are also instructed to search all bags, sacks and backpacks.
This is not the first time the singer has shown support for the movement. He made a real declaration to the Black Bloc girl who appears in a Mídia Ninja video and on the cover of "Veja" magazine, who says her name is Emma: "she is stunningly beautiful with the mask that only shows her eyes."
