The absence of judicial subpoena to the witnesses indicated by the defendants of the 2022 coup plot left the session on Wednesday (16) emptied in (Supreme Federal Court). In one of the nuclei that had testimonials of 22 nominees, only two were heard.
Minister Alexandre de Moraes, made by (Attorney General’s Office).
The list included military, politicians, diplomats and the Federal Police delegate who conducted the investigations of the case. But only the Senator (PP-PI) and former Minister of (Institutional Security Office) and Reserve General, known as Gdias, attended.
The hearing dedicated to the action management nucleus of the denounced criminal organization had witnesses appointed by former international advisor to the Presidency of the Republic and the former special presidential advisor Marcelo Câmara.
The former assistant of Moraes in the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) was also appointed by the defense of Filipe Martins, but the minister rejected the nomination in the decision that defined the sessions.
There was a forecast that the audience extended all day, but it lasted about an hour and a half.
Ciro Nogueira stated that Marcelo Câmara was close to Bolsonaro and confirmed that he had brokered a meeting between the former president and Moraes in late 2022, but said he did not remember if the military attended the organization of the meeting.
Gdiah, in turn, reaffirmed what the parliamentarians said at CPMI of January 8, when he said he received “divergent information” from two GSI direct advisory agencies: the Secretariat of Presidential Coordination and Security and the General Coordination of Risk Analysis.
“If you suddenly receive a message from WhatsApp and that this message has to be transformed into this report, you have to be worked on, you have to go to a session that clears the report and turning it there into a true information, what will you register on it?” He replied to be asked about the information received about the invasions of the three powers.
At the time of the General’s hearing there was also a disagreement between Moraes and Filipe Martins’s defender Jeffrey Chiquini, who has already discussed with the rapporteur in other sessions.
On Wednesday, the lawyer questioned the gdias about the troops that the GSI was available on the day of the invasion of the Planalto Palace. He asked the question more than once and Moraes said he was repeating himself and the military had already answered.
Chiquini continued and called the vandal invaders. Moraes interrupted. “Doctor, when scammers arrived, because they are not vandals, they are scammers, even convicted. The images are very clear,” he said.
The lawyer insisted, stating that the material was selectively made available: “But what images? The 190 or both provided?”. Moraes asked if he was making any accusation and he replied that he had spoken in a generic way.
The minister cut the lawyer’s microphone for a moment and, when reconnecting, Chiquini said, “Did you get my word?” Moraes answered affirmatively, “Casseed your word, Doctor. Please, let’s go.”
Jeffrey for tumulturing the progress of the case.
Former Armed Forces commanders Marco Antônio (former army chief) (former Aeronautics chief) were present at the hearings of the Strategic Disinformation Operations Center on Tuesday (15), called by the Union Public Defender’s Office, which represents, expelled captain of the army. This Wednesday, however, did not attend.
The rapporteur rejected Martins’ defense requests for Senator Eduardo Girão (Novo-CE), deputy (Novo-RS) and former minister, as well as Todd Chapman (former US-Basker), Fabiana Melissa da Costa, Yossi Shelley (former Israeli-editor) and Fabiana Melisse from the former Ukraine Costa).
Moraes also approved the withdrawal requested by the defenses, with the possibility of joining statements, witnesses who did not enter the video conferencing: former Senate President (-MG), Senator Rogério Marinho (-RN) and the former chief of the Moraes ceremonial at TSE Fernanda Januzzi.
The defenses, however, have until next Monday (21), last day of the hearing of the witnesses of this core, to try again to schedule the participation of Freire Gomes, Baptista Júnior, Fabio Shoor, Helio Lopes (PL-RJ), Eduardo Pazuello (PL-RJ), former presidency Matheus Matos Diniz and Promoter Stella Floriani Burda.
Sought, the STF’s staff has not yet reported a balance of witnesses who failed to attend the other sessions.
The Code of Criminal Procedure establishes in its article 401 that, in the instruction of the proceedings, up to eight witnesses of the prosecution and eight of the defense may be surveyed. This number, however, may be expanded by the judge’s decision, considering the complexity of the case and the number of defendants and imputed crimes.
