for\u00a0<strong>President Michel Temer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Maria Victoria Barros, 25, is a member of the state assembly in Parana and daughter of Mr Temer\u2019s health minister.<\/p>\n<p>Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the church where the ceremony was taking place on Friday evening.<\/p>\n<p>Pelted with eggs, she had to leave the church in an armoured vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>The lavish ceremony attracted the state\u2019s political elite, including her father, Ricardo Barros, and her mother, Cida Borghetti, Parana\u2019s deputy governor.<\/p>\n<p>At least 30 members of the Brazilian Congress were invited to travel from the capital Brasilia for the wedding in the Parana state capital, Curitiba.<\/p>\n<p>Demonstrators carried anti-government signs and shouted slogans at Ms Barros, accusing her of being a \u201ccoup plotter\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Footage posted on YouTube shows security guards opening umbrellas to try to protect the bride and groom as they left the Church of the Rosary.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"responsive-image__img js-image-replace\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/_96960964_040229895-1.jpg\"

the protest was linked to her mother\u2019s recent decision to run for state governor and had been \u201cfinanced by left-wing parties and unions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She regretted the attacks against some of the guests but added: \u201cThis is the price of democracy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The incident is another illustration of how split and bitter Brazilian politics has become since the impeachment last year of Mr Temer\u2019s predecessor, Dilma Rousseff.<\/p>\n<p>During the impeachment trial, Ms Rousseff described the move as a right-wing coup, supported by her vice-president at the time, Mr Temer.<\/p>\n<p>Supporters of her Workers\u2019 Party were further angered by the\u00a0conviction of former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva\u00a0on Wednesday to nine years and six months in jail for corruption.<\/p>\n<p>Lula has rejected claims that he received an apartment as a bribe in a corruption scandal linked to state oil company Petrobras.<\/p>\n<p>He has appealed against the verdict, saying the trial was politically-motivated, aimed at preventing him from running for office again next year.<\/p>\n<p>Lula served eight years as president until 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Federal Judge Sergio Moro, from Parana state, ruled that he could remain free pending an appeal.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a
