The State Court of Guarantees in São Paulo returned an unresolved request seeking access to confidential financial data from businesswoman Karina Ferreira da Gama, owner of Go UP Entertainment, which produced the film 'Dark Horse'.

This request is related to an investigation into possible misappropriation of public funds from the City of São Paulo. The court requested that the Civil Police detail the evidence collected regarding these alleged misappropriations before making a ruling on accessing the producer's financial data.

According to information from g1, the investigation pertains to a contract between the City and the Instituto Conhecer Brasil (ICB), and the court requires a clear explanation of the necessary evidence to justify the breach of confidentiality for the producer.

Go Up Entertainment, in response to inquiries, stated that it has informed the court of all financial transfers related to the film 'Dark Horse'. The company declared that a previously undisclosed transfer from banker Daniel Vorcaro was included in the financial report submitted to the court in June of this year.

The producer reaffirmed its commitment to cooperating with the investigation and maintaining transparency regarding its financial activities, particularly concerning the impact of the film production. Exclusivities and contract details remain under analysis as authorities continue to monitor the situation.

The court indicated that it will evaluate the requested information before making a new decision regarding access to financial documents, thus reaffirming the need for rigor in the investigations.
