APPLICATION OF THE STF Minister was sent to the Attorney General’s Office on Saturday (8); agency will have until next Friday (14) to present a position on the arguments of the lawyers
This Saturday (8), the minister do he set a deadline until April 14 for the Attorney General’s Office to comment on the defenses presented by 34 individuals, including former President Jair Bolsonaro. These accused are accused of involvement in an attempted coup d’état after the 2022 elections, with allegations that include the formation of an armed criminal organization.
The Attorney General’s Office has already formalized the complaint against Bolsonaro and 32 people, who are accused of participating in a coup scheme. The imputations against them include five distinct crimes: formation of armed criminal organization, attempted coup d’état, attempted abolition of the Democratic Rule of Law, qualified damage and deterioration of protected heritage.
The lawyers of the accused have spoken out against the accusations, alleging curtailment of the right of defense. They criticize the lack of organization in the availability of documents essential for the construction of their defenses, which, according to them, compromises the integrity of the process.
Particularly, Jair Bolsonaro’s defense requested the cancellation of Mauro Cid’s denunciation, arguing that access restricted to evidence and excessive amount of documents undermine the work of lawyers. This situation raises concerns about the transparency and equity of the ongoing judicial process.
