this Friday (25), was celebrated by Lulistas and mocked by pockets.
Allies of the President (PT) took the opportunity to remember that Collor, former political opponent of the petistas, supported () during the 2022 elections.
Already pockets mocked the fact that the prison happens as a breakdown of Lava Jato, an investigation that even led Lula to the prison and of which the petistas are frequent critics.
Collor for the crimes of passive and money laundering.
According to the conviction, the former president influenced BR Distribuidora’s command and board of directors, from 2010 to 2014, the period of petist management Lula and Dilma Rousseff when he was a senator, to ensure the signing of state-owned contracts with the construction company UTC. In return, Collor would have received $ 20 million.
His conviction was one of the developments precisely from Lava Jato, but the evidence of this case was not annulled by the Supreme Court.
The former president was arrested on Friday in Maceió (AL) after the minister denying the last appeals presented by his defense and that of other convicted defendants.
The judgment of the case in the Supreme Plenary already has four votes to keep the decision of Moraes ,.
Deputies Bohn Gass (PT-RS) and Carlos Zarattini (PT-SP), both who have the position of vice-leader of the government, published texts about the arrest with a photo of Collor and Bolsonaro together.
Lula government base names took the opportunity to remember that Brazil’s latest former president is a defendant in an investigation that also runs in the Supreme Court-this case, for the scammer acts of January 8, 2023.
Erika Kokay (PT-DF) posted a video of former president, now arrested, shouting Bolsonaro’s name in an electoral act, and wrote: “Tell us, Collor, who will be next?” Rogério Corrêa (PT-MG) followed in the same tone.
“We will not repeat the mistake and leave Bolsonaro free to continue to attack against Brazil,” said Deputy Guilherme Boulos (PSOL-SP).
“Bye, dear!”, Published deputy Erika Hilton (PSOL-SP), in reference to the staff “Bye, dear” used by opponents of Dilma Rousseff (PT) at the time of his.
Deputy Guilherme Boulos (PSOL-SP) stated that “Collor’s account took 35 years to arrive”.
Petistas and their allies, however, do not cite the fact that Collor’s arrest on Friday happened in a process that is unfolding the same lava jet that is harshly criticized by them.
Already pockets have taken advantage of this connection to imply, once again, that the STF acts with bias.
“I lived to see the Supreme Court kill the Lava Jato to rid the face of all petistas and now rise to arrest Collor, who coincidentally supported Bolsonaro in 2022. It’s so wide open, that it became normal, no one is more amazed at the country’s judicial suruba,” said the former opposition leader, Carlos Jordy (PL-RJ).
Senator and former Lava Jato Jato Jato Moro (União Brasil – PR) also treated Collor’s political relations irony and questioned who had allowed Collor’s access to BR Distribuidora, in a hint of responsibility for the governments of Dilma Rousseff and Lula.
Former Bolsonaro minister and now senator Damares Alves (Republicans-DF) mocked the fact that the Lula government recently granted Nadine Heredia, wife of former Peru president Ollanta Humala-also sentenced to 15 arrest in an offshoot of the Lava Jato abroad.
“Will the Peruvian president send an aircraft from his country’s Air Force to pick up former Brazilian President Collor de Melo who is sending arrest?” He wrote.
Center politicians heard by the report say that it caused discomfort that the arrest has occurred, according to them, suddenly, although the process has been dragging for years, and claim that there is a general feeling in politics contrary to what they classify as a police state.
Nevertheless, a leadership says that this case impacts the current political scenario, given the lack of political support that the former president has today.
Another leadership of the Center, however, states that the Supreme would commit serious incongruities in his words if he analyzed Bolsonaro’s case to the end without finishing Collor’s.
