The court of 15 days gave the former deputy and former prosecutor pay an indemnity of $ 135.4 thousand to the president (PT), for moral damages arising from the PowerPoint presentation used by him by announcing criminal complaint against Lula, in 2016, during the.
The president had filed a lawsuit in his city that year, claiming compensation of $ 1 million. Lula was represented at the time by today’s Supreme Court Minister Cristiano Zanin. He lost in the initial two instances, but (Superior Court of Justice), when the case became final.
Last Friday (25), in the process of execution of the sentence, Judge Carlo Brito Melfi, of the 5th Civil Court of São Bernardo, determined a period of 15 days for payment-the count started on Monday (28).
The judge is the same who had denied compensation in the first instance. The amount set by R $ 75 thousand, but was corrected in the decision that ordered the sentence.
The STJ ministers who gave Lula right considered that at the news conference in which he presented the complaint, Deltan used expressions that were not in the process and aimed to hurt the former president’s image. At the time, he stated that Lula was “the great general” of the Petrobras scheme and commanded a “propinocracy.”
Lula’s defense maintained that the press conference “became a depressing spectacle of attack on honor, image and reputation” of the former president.
The report sought the former deputy to hear him about the new decision, to no avail.
At the time of the conviction in the STJ, his defense stated that there was no violation of the honor or moral damage that led to compensation for moral damage and that the interview was granted within the regular exercise of the prosecutor.
