Boulos says he was summoned because of an eviction lawsuit and points to judicial selectivity.
"Unbelievable! Today I received a summons for 'damages' related to the Pinheirinho eviction, which occurred 8 years ago. The eviction, for those who remember, was marked by barbarity against the residents. At the initiative of the Public Prosecutor's Office, the summons came days after the announcement of my pre-candidacy for Mayor of São Paulo," said the leader of the MTST, Guilherme Boulos.

There was a repossession order.
