One of the main donors of the campaign of (Republicans) in the 2022 election is investigated by in Paraná on suspicion of involvement in a money laundering scheme (first command of the capital).
The rancher Maribel Schmittz Golin, 59, who donated $ 500,000 to the current governor’s election campaign, is cited by PF in at least four financial transfers with Willian Barile Agati, named as a member of the São Paulo criminal faction – one of last year’s main targets.
In a statement, Tarcisio’s staff says he had more than 600 donors in the election and has no bond with Maribel or knowledge of possible conduct with no relationship with the campaign. The amount donated by her was the sixth largest among all funders of the governor.
Maribel Disse at Sheet that his advisory would manifest himself about the case, but no one returned. In a brief exchange of messages for WhatsApp, she denied any connection with the crimes found by the PF. “I have no involvement with that,” he wrote.
The financial control of Tarcisio’s campaign was made by his brother -in -law, Maurício Pozzobon Martins. Shortly after taking office, the governor tried to employ him at the Bandeirantes Palace, but retreated after criticism of nepotism. Currently, he from state deputy Danilo Campetti (Republicans), allied scholarship of the head of the state executive.
Maribel made two transfers to Tarcisio’s campaign. The first was on August 26, 2022, of $ 100,000, per pix. The second, on October 6, already in the second round, of R $ 400 thousand, by electronic transfer, according to data declared to the Electoral Court. She did not pass money to any other candidate.
The Calculation of the PF that quotes rancher mirred the CCP cocaine to the port of Paranaguá (PR) to Europe, in partnership with the faction with ‘Nndangheta, Italian mafia originating from Calabria. The police report officially cites Maribel on the list of “investigated”.
Barile was reported to the Paraná Federal Court in February this year, with 13 other people, on charges of drug trafficking, association for trafficking, obstruction of justice and criminal organization.
It was identified from the seizure of two containers in 2020, in Porto Paraná, which would take 554 kg of cocaine to the Port of Valencia, Spain.
By tracking the loading information, the PF followed the financial transactions of the gang, mapping a large CCP money laundering scheme, whose detail was.
The PF arrived at the donor of Tarcisio’s campaign from this tracking, checking the origin and destination of the money that went through Barile’s accounts.
One of the suspicious transactions between the two was the sale of an apartment of R $ 3 million, in Santo André (SP), whose venal value was R $ 881 thousand. In another, also in Santo André, in 2021, a property with venal value of R $ 106 thousand was registered as sold for R $ 250 thousand – more than double.
The investigation also tracked three transfers between four companies from Maribel and Barile, which total R $ 3.5 million.
“In conclusion, in order not to extend to the communications of the rif [Relatório de Inteligência Financeira]It is crucial to emphasize that Maribel Schmittz Golin maintains a close relationship with Willian Barile Agati, “says the PF report.
“RIF communicated transactions strongly suggest the occurrence of classical, real estate money laundering. For example, significant differences between tax assessment values and the values declared in transactions involving these individuals raise suspicions of illegal activities.”
Given the track that the rancher could be acting to launder money from drug trafficking, the PF expanded the tracking of Maribel’s financial transactions.
The police found that she had four companies, all without any registered employees, but moved more than $ 1.4 billion between 2020 and 2022, drawing the attention of investigators.
Neither donation to the election campaign is mentioned in the investigation, and there is no quote either the name of Tarcisio or his campaign in the police report.
Investigations are still in progress in the PF of Paraná, in the inquiry phase. The court analyzes the complaint of the MPF (Federal Prosecutor) against Barile and others involved in drug trafficking and money laundering.
One of the members of the investigation, heard by the Sheethe pointed out that the billionaire amount moved by the rancher continues under analysis, but that the PF, for the sake of competence, sought to focus on the movements that may be related to drug trafficking.
There are movements between Maribel and Pastor Valdemiro Santiago of the World Church of the Power of God, who are also suspected of hiding money laundering crimes.
A PF collaborator said, in a statement, that Barile acted with Joselito Golin, Maribel’s husband, and that he “warmed money within Pastor Valdemiro’s church,” according to the police report.
The report sought the pastor through his church to hear him over the case. One of the World Cup lawyers said that if they wanted to comment, they would return – which did not occur until the publication of this text.
Joselito and Maribel are part of the Golin Group, a rancher conglomerate present in the Southeast, Northeast and Midwest regions. The organization has gained prominence two decades ago for acquiring the gathered farms shorts shortly before the company fails, revealing a financial pyramid scheme that has damaged thousands of investors. The case had repercussions because the fat cattle propaganda in the interval of Globo’s soap opera “King of Gado”.
The report asked the Bandeirantes Palace if Tarcisio knows or was already with Maribel, it is known the origin of the resources destined for the campaign and is known why she worked for her election.
In response, he received the following note: “Tarcísio de Freitas’s campaign had more than 600 donors and was conducted with full respect for the electoral laws. The governor has no bond with the donor mentioned, as well as prior knowledge about possible conduct that does not concern the campaign. The rendering of accounts was analyzed and approved by the Electoral Justice without any pending in this regard.”
