Lieutenant Colonel Mauro Cid and the General will have an interim, by the Minister of (Supreme Federal Court) Alexandre de Moraes. The procedure is scheduled for next Tuesday (24.Jun.2025), at 10am, in the court’s hearing room, in the process of criminal action on an attempt to coup.
Braga Netto’s defense requested the procedure to clarify two differences:
In an interview with Poder360Braga Netto’s lawyer, said that “Mauro Cid is a stretchy liar, has given numerous testimonials, went and returned several times. Acareament will be important to once again demonstrate that the collaborator missed the truth.”.
Acareration is a legal resource that puts people with conflicting versions “face to face” Faced with an authority to clarify differences in their testimonials.
During the procedure, Cid and Braga Netto will answer the same set of questions. Will present their respective versions of the investigated facts. The goal is to allow authorities to compare divergent statements to advance in the conclusions of the case.
According to Cid, a plan to monitor and murder authorities was discussed at a meeting at Braga Netto’s house. Would have participated in the special forces (the “Black Kids”). In his interrogation to the Supreme Court, the General. He said the meeting lasted a few minutes and was intended to introduce Cid colleagues, not to discuss any action.
Lieutenant Colonel also states that he received from the general R $ 100,000 in a bag to finance the actions of the plan. According to the whistleblower, the money would have been achieved by Braga Netto with agribusiness entrepreneurs, after the PL denying the release of resources.
The General disputes Cid’s version and declares that he has never had contact with businessmen in the sector or ordered money.
Braga Netto in December 2024 after Cid gave testimony to the PF and reported the delivery of the money. Lieutenant Colonel would also have said that the general contacted his father, General Lourena Cid, for details of his. Preventive arrest was determined by Moraes.

Power360-What are the points to be clarified at the license with Lieutenant Colonel Mauro Cid?
José Luis Oliveira Lima – We require General Braga Netto to intervene with the whistleblower Mauro Cid to clarify two main divergences: the dynamics and objective of the meeting of November 12, 2022 occurred at the residence of General Braga Netto and the alleged delivery of money to finance green and yellow dagger operations. Mauro Cid is a stretch liar, gave numerous testimonies, went and returned several times. Acareration will be important to once again demonstrate that the employee has missed the truth.
BRAGA NETTO DIDN’T DELIVER THE MONEY TO CID?
First, it is important to note that it is up to the prosecution to prove the imputations made to General Braga Netto, which was not done in both the investigative and procedural phase. But regardless of this issue, General Braga Netto never delivered money to financing any operation. In fact, only the liar whistleblower who presented this false narrative.
I would like to note that Mauro Cid just brought this version of the facts in November 2024, when he was called in the STF to clarify lies and omissions that could lead to the termination of his agreement and the restoration of his pre -trial detention. At that time, it had been more than 1 year since his collaboration had been celebrated, and the whistleblower had already given about 10 testimonials to the authorities.
If it is proven that Cid lied in his testimony and the version of Braga Netto is the true, the denunciation can be annulled?
By celebrating the agreement, Mauro Cid consented to the legal commitments to tell the truth and not omit facts. Failure to comply with these duties must generate termination and decree of the nullity of the denunciation.
On the plan “Yellow green dagger”Did you have access to the full document? According to PF (Federal Police), there are only excerpts from the file found on the computer of Mário Fernandes.
I need to point out once again that the defense is in a delicate situation regarding the full analysis of the case. Although it has been required several times, no time was granted for analysis of the more than 40 terabytes of investigative content provided by the Federal Police on May 17. The management of this material is so difficult that technicians estimated up to 60 days just to download and unzip it. Thus, so far only access to the plans that were exposed in police analyzes have been accessed.
Regardless of any curtailment of the right of defense, the police report does not explain the connection of the “green and yellow dagger” plan with the general precisely because there is no relationship. Our client did not participate in any plan that could endanger the Democratic Rule of Law.
