Lieutenant Colonel Mauro Cid’s defense prepares a report to counter the suspicion that the military used an Instagram profile to give details about his award-winning denunciation-which would violate the confidentiality of the agreement. The document should show that, despite being registered with an email from Cid and a phone from his wife, the account had access from Copenhagen in Denmark-which could indicate the use of third parties.
Following the sournings on Tuesday, Cid should give a new statement to the Federal Police to clarify the alleged messages attributed to him. In a first hearing, the military denied that he talked about his allegation with lawyer Eduardo Kuntz, who defends former Bolsonaro advisor Colonel Marcelo Câmara.
This Monday, the goal, owner of Instagram, handed the Supreme Court (STF) a letter that shows details of the Instagram account and the IPs of the devices that accessed it. According to this document, the profile was registered in 2005 with the email “maurocid@gmail.com” and the military’s birthday date.
Based on the information provided by the goal, ICD’s defense is producing a report to corroborate its version. In addition to the records abroad, the document will list the dates on which it would be impossible to access the military – as on March 22, 2024 and June 9, 2025, when he was attending hearings in the Supreme Court (STF).
Understand the case
During the interrogation of ICD at the STF, on June 9, lawyer Celso Vilardi, from the defense of former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL), asked the military if he had talked about the content of his denunciation with others on Instagram-which could violate the confidentiality of collaboration. He denied.
Then Vilardi wondered if he knew a profile called “Gabrielar702”. Cid replied that Gabriela is her wife’s name, but she didn’t know if that was her profile.

Days later, Veja magazine published messages that would have been sent by Cid over her denunciation through this profile. To the STF, Lieutenant Colonel’s lawyers denied that he was the author of the dialogue and asked for the investigation of the account. Moraes answered the request and determined that the goal send the data.
Last week, however, lawyer Eduardo Kuntz, who works in defense of former presidential advisor Marcelo Câmara, told the STF that he was who talked to Cid for this account and presented more messages.
House is one of the defendants of the so -called “core two” of the coup plot, while Cid and Bolsonaro are part of the considered “crucial core” of the alleged criminal organization that would have tried a coup at the end of 2022.

On Wednesday, Moraes had a camera arrested and determined that he and Kuntz be investigated for possible obstruction of justice.
“The conduct reported in the case file, indicating, at this time, the possible attempt to obstruct the investigation, by Marcelo Costa Câmara and his lawyer Luiz Eduardo de Almeida Santos Kuntz, who unlawfully overflowed the legal obligations of lawyer,” said Moraes.
In the data sent by the goal, there is a record of a conversation between Kuntz, the profile “Gabrielar702” and Paulo Amador Cunha Bueno, one of the lawyers of former President Jair Bolsonaro’s team.
