New testimonies in Brazil in the case of Bolsonaro’s interference – Prensa Latina

The Legal Counsel portal ensures that the inquiries are based on the statements of former Minister of Justice Sergio Moro.

Moro denounced Bolsonaro’s interference in that police force, an act that, according to the former investigative judge, caused him to withdraw from the government on April 24, 2020.

He added that the former military should condition his departure on the dismissal of delegate Mauricio Vallexo from the presidency of the powerful investigative body, as has already happened.

According to the website, in May last year, the Rapporteur of the investigation, Minister Celso de Mello, of the STF, allowed Moro, the Federal Police, the Prosecutor of the Republic and the Prosecutor of the Federation access to the video of the ministerial meeting held on April 22, 2020.

The idea was that everyone could ask the questions that would be asked during the witness demonstrations.

After the investigation resumed, the police delegate in charge of conducting the investigation, Felipe Alcantara de Barros Leal, doubted that the Federal Public Prosecution and the defense of the people investigated had raised questions during the new statements.

De Alexandre ruled out the need for a subpoena to comply with this procedure.

According to the investigating judge, de Mello’s decision only indicated which witnesses would be heard at the time of the investigation regarding media content and the recording of the April 22 meeting.

“I understand that it is not necessary to maintain this procedure in all sessions,” the minister said.

Military police want to delve into the Inquisition affecting Bolsonaro’s children, especially in the state of Rio de Janeiro.

For the establishment, the president’s supposed interest in controlling the top command of the security forces could be linked to various family problems with the justice system.

The investigation has been suspended since September. The full Supreme Court has yet to decide whether Bolsonaro’s presentation in the case should be made in person or in writing.
