Transfer would be to fund camps in front of the barracks; He declares that he does not know the amount of the amount received
Lieutenant Colonel Mauro Cid, former (PL) orders, said on Monday (9.Jun.2025) who omitted having received money from General Braga Netto because he was in “shock” the day it was arrested. The amount would be for the group’s operations that would have planned a coup d’état in 2022.
The statement was given during a statement to the 1st Panel of the Supreme Court (STF), which began to interrogate the defendants of the crucial nucleus in the action for attempted coup. According to Cid, Major Rafael Martins de Oliveira asked him to fund camps in front of the barracks. He took the demand to Braga Netto, who recommended it seek help with representatives of the PL (Liberal Party).
After the negative, Cid returned to Braga Netto. According to him, the general delivered an amount of money to the Alvorada Palace. “I don’t know the exact value, but it wasn’t $ 100,000. For the volume, it seemed less. He handed me to dawn”he said. Cid said he passed the amount .
Asked about the source of the money, the former joint officer said he believed the funds came from agribusiness entrepreneurs.
Minister Alexandre de Moraes recalled that the information had not been cited in the first 2 testimonies of CID. Read the dialogue below:
Moraes: It is good to make it clear that, in the first statement, you did not mention this fact. After the Federal Police warned the court and there was a request for decree of his arrest, you were informed that it could be decreed if any omission was proven. From this, the Lord rectified the testimony and brought these facts. Confirm?
Cid: Yes sir. I did not tell this to the Federal Police that day because it was precisely the day of prison. I was very shaken, I could not react or organize the ideas to understand what was happening. I had a formed idea of what the situation was, and everything changed. People were arrested, my friends. It shook me. Then, when I went to talk to you, I had already talked to my lawyers, and we were able to organize the information to put on paper.
