Lawyers maintain that the questionnaires should be held only after the hearings of the witnesses linked to other nuclei of the investigation
The defense, defendant in the criminal action investigating an alleged attempted coup, filed a request to the Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (). The goal is to postpone the interrogations of the accused, including, until witnesses of other nuclei are heard and evidence, such as denunciation documents, are completely analyzed. Braga Netto’s lawyers maintain that interrogations should be carried out only after the hearings of witnesses linked to other cores of the investigation. The Supreme Court has already accepted the complaint against three additional centers, which total 25 people, but the criminal action against these individuals has not yet been instituted.
Another point raised by the defense is the need to examine documents related to Lieutenant Colonel’s denunciation, which have not yet been made available. Cid is scheduled to be the first to give testimony in the case, and the defense argues that it is essential to have access to this information before proceeding. The lawyers ask for a “reasonable term” so that they can analyze all documents pertinent to the investigation.
