Former President’s allies intend to use a demonstration scheduled for Wednesday (7) to insist on a broad amnesty those involved in the coup plot, even with the negotiation opened by the congressional summit to reduce the penalties of part of the convicts.
Bolsonarists say that the act will serve to demonstrate to society that opposition continues to mobilized by amnesty, despite David Alcolumbre (Brazil-AP Union), and Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB), by an alternative proposal.
The act was baptized by the organizers of “Peaceful Walk through Humanitarian Amnesty”. Federal deputies and senators were summoned by the former president and the pastor to participate during the afternoon of the journey of about 3 km between the TV tower of Brasilia and the.
“My expectation is that we have a peaceful, quiet act that demonstrates the need for national reconciliation,” says the opposition leader, Rogério Marinho (PL-RN).
Upon receipt on Sunday (4), after 22 days of hospitalization to recover from gut surgery, Bolsonaro was guided by the medical team to avoid crowds and restrict the number of home visits for the coming weeks.
Nevertheless, he said through social networks that he will try to participate in the act, “if the health situation of the moment allows.”
“I hope the president follows the guidelines that were passed, safeguarding, for the next three or four weeks. [Ele deve] Avoid agglomerations, avoid staying in the midst of many people because this may interfere with the recovery of surgery, “said doctor Claudio Birolini on Sunday.
The alternative proposal to amnesty, articulated by the Senate President, would allow the application of lower penalties to those who were present in the acts of January 8, 2023, but did not plan them or funded them. One, subordinate to alcohumbre. The text has not yet been released.
The project of the pockets, in turn, predicts amnesty to all past and future acts linked to attacks on the headquarters of the three powers.
A, PL now studies a new version of the text of the text, which possibly restricts forgiveness to the convicts. Among government parliamentarians and ministers of the Federal Supreme Court, there is an assessment that even another format of the text can keep loopholes open to deliver leaders from the attempted coup, such as Bolsonaro.
At the end of last month, the mayor was able to isolate the PL after the party has sufficient support to submit the urgent request, with the signature of 264 deputies – not for half of the government.
“Our motto, our goal, is a peaceful walk for the humanitarian amnesty, which had the urgency supported by most deputies. This is our theme, that amnesty is a theme of competence of the National Congress,” says Malafaia.
Even with the decision to publicly insist on amnesty, part of the opposition states reserved that there is room to support an alternative project. Under the condition of anonymity, parliamentarians say it is difficult for opposition to vote against the reduction of penalties to at least part of the convicts.
Even with the wear and tear faced by the federal government in the face of the scandal of illegal discounts in retirement and pensions of the (National Institute of Social Security), parliamentarians say it is necessary to maintain focus on amnesty.
The investigation led former social security minister Carlos Lupi (PDT) to forced President Lula (PT) to dismiss no.
In addition, the opposition claims to have achieved the necessary signatures not only for a CPI (Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry) on the subject in the House of Representatives, Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry formed by deputies and senators.
“Of course people are very bothered by everything that is happening and can also have something about it, this retirees’ theft scandal. [a manifestação] Ordered and peacefully, “says Senator Eduardo Girão (Novo-CE).
“It is very important the presence of parliamentarians, this transcends the issue of opposition or not, is a matter of humanity, sensitivity, compassion. This is my motivation and I believe this is the number one agenda,” he adds.
Also on Wednesday, an entourage of civil society organizations that are part of the coalition pact for democracy will act against amnesty to the scammers of January 8 in front of the bust of former Deputy Rubens Paiva in Annex 2 of the House.
The group promises to deliver a document with over 180,000 signatures collected in the campaign without amnesty for coup.
