“I don’t know, minister [Barroso]as a factually failed or simply non-existent conspiracy, dating back more than two years, explodes in the media in the face of the nation without further explanation, beyond the targeted and selective leak of so-called confidential investigative pieces”, stated the senator.
“Does the investigation really want to investigate the serious facts reported or create another political factoid to disorient the country?”, questioned Mourão.
The senator also mentioned a recent meeting, not recorded on public agendas, between President Lula, the Attorney General of the Republic, Paulo Gonet, ministers of the STF and the director of the Federal Police (PF), Andrei Passos Rodrigues.

“What would justify and what does it mean for authorities from different Powers to meet with the leadership of the State’s police arm? Finally, Minister, we need to know how a few enlightened people assume the exercise of an extra-constitutional power that denies basic rights to Brazilians, in different situations and circumstances. There is a lot we need to know, especially how we reached this point of social discord, political persecution, ideological revenge and authoritarian temptations”, said Mourão.
“But something is known, minister: that a democracy cannot be made political with the police; Above all, the greatest purpose of the State is achieved with justice”, concluded the senator.
