The Lieutenant Colonel , former presidential orders of the presidency, and the general former Minister of Defense and the Civil House, held their versions on Monday (24), at Acareação no. The two faced to confront their versions of divergent points of the testimonials they previously took on the action of the attacks of January 8. Divergences revolve around two episodes: a meeting at the former minister’s house in Brasilia on November 12, 2022, and the alleged delivery of money by Braga Netto to fund a prison and execution plan of authorities.

What does Mauro Cid says?

Lieutenant Colonel states that the meeting at the former minister’s house was previously scheduled to discuss measures against the inauguration of the President (PT) and claims that he did not follow the content of the conversations because he left before the end of the meeting to prepare a meeting for Bolsonaro. At first, Cid justified that “it seemed that the meeting was one more in order to show dissatisfaction against the outcome of the elections, but it would be just another bravado.” He also claimed that he realized that the meeting was “something more serious” when he learned of the “green and yellow dagger” plan, which provided for the execution of authorities such as Lula, (PSB) and. Mauro Cid claims to have received a wine bag with money from the General’s hands in the Dawn Palace. The resources would be used to play the camps in front of the barracks, according to Lieutenant Colonel. Braga Netto denies having delivered money to the former joint order.

What does Braga Netto say?

Braga Netto claims that Lieutenant Colonel appeared by surprise in his functional apartment in Brasilia, accompanied by colonels Helio Ferreira Lima and Rafael Martins de Oliveira, the Army Special Forces, the so-called “black kids”, and that the colonels were just greeting him and everyone left together. Braga Netto’s defense questioned Mauro Cid on Tuesday about the change in his version of the meeting. In the first statement to the Federal Police, he stated that the meeting at the former minister’s house occurred only because Rafael Martins wanted to “take a picture” with the general.

On Tuesday, Mauro Cid stated that the bag was sealed and did not see the money, but that Braga Netto himself said the amount should be used to play the camps. He said he calculated the approximate value of the weight of the bag, but at no time was it opened. The former ordinant of orders also stated that he did not mention the transaction in the first statement because he was still in “shock” after the prisons of former allies in the investigation. Asked by Braga Netto’s defense about the exact place of money delivery, Mauro Cid could not answer. He said it could have been in one of the three areas where he was the most transit in the Dawn Palace: the private garage, the room for the aid or the parking lot next to the pool.

“Also asked by the lawyer of the defendant Braga Netto, the defendant collaborating, said if he recalled that the money was received in the morning, without exactly remembering the time, and that the delivery was not witnessed by anyone else and that it has no material proof of receipt of the money,” says an excerpt from the minutes of the Caoreação. The hearing was not recorded by determination of Minister Alexandre de Moraes, rapporteur of the case, to “avoid improper pressures, including through past leaks of what would or would not be asked to the ornament.”
