Brian Sarmiento's salary at GH was garnished for a million-dollar debt with his daughter's food quota

Brian Sarmiento's participation in Big Brother was shrouded in a new controversy after a court decision was released that directly impacts the money he receives within the reality show.

As it transpired in the last few hours, the Justice ordered the seizure of $1,500,000 of the salary that the former football player earns for his participation in the program, due to a debt related to the food quota of his 10-year-old daughter.

The court order was sent both to Telefe and to the production company Kuarzo, responsible for the reality show, and the amount withheld corresponds to part of the salary that Sarmiento receives for his presence in the cycle.

According to information released on the program El Diario de Mariana (América TV), the embargo corresponds to the first few months of debt plus accrued interest.

Journalist Santiago Riva Roy explained on air that the notification has already been sent to the parties involved in the program.

“Telefe and Kuarzo have already been notified, and a peso will not be able to go into Brian's pockets until the debt is paid off, which is 22 months,” he said.

As it transpired, the total debt would amount to $18,000,000, although the current embargo is only $1,500,000, corresponding to the first few unpaid months. The rest of the amount will be dealt with in future judicial instances.
