The defense of the reserve colonel Marcelo Câmara, one of the defendants in the trial of the coup plot, confirmed on Tuesday (13) that the monitoring of the Supreme Court Minister led at the end of December 2022 was a request from the former president ().
“Defendant Marcelo Câmara’s defense requested that, in relation to the second monitoring at the end of December, there is no relationship with the aforementioned Operation ‘Green and Yellow Denial’ and this monitoring was requested ‘directly’ by former President Jair Messias Bolsonaro.”
The defense of the chamber, led by lawyer Luiz Eduardo Kuntz, stated the request at the end of the interim between the reserve colonel and the former Assistant of Orders of Bolsonaro, held on Tuesday in the Supreme.
In his statement, Cid said he sent the House two requests for monitoring Moraes. The first, between December 16 and 22, 2022, was requested by Major Rafael de Oliveira, who would be one of the plan’s craftsman to assassinate authorities, according to the Attorney General’s Office.
Then a second request would have come from former President Jair Bolsonaro, who, according to Cid, suspected that Moraes and then vice president Hamilton Mourão (Republicans) would be gathering in Sao Paulo.
Asked by Moraes if Câmara knew the origin of the requests, Cid said he could not say, but maybe the reserve colonel knew about the second request, made directly by the former president. “Because the second [ordem de monitoramento] It had to do directly with the president. What was going to happen to the president, possibly, Colonel Câmara was aware of, “Cid said at the caress.
Câmara denied having monitored the minister, and said he only answered questions about Moraes asked him by Cid. “I didn’t do monitoring. But even so, if anyone wants to insist yet on saying that I did monitoring, he was not used for any illicit means, no illegality.”
Corroborating the chamber version, the former ordinant of orders also said he could not claim that the former advisor was aware of the “Yellow Green Dagger” plan, and said he did not know if Chamber had been contacting the so-called Draft Coup, a document that was reported to former President Bolsonaro by the then Presidential International Relations Advisor, Filipe Martins.

Câmara says he never knew of operation against the authorities and passed information only when they asked him, using open sources, and because Bolsonaro suspected that Vice President Hamilton Mourão was secretly secretly with Mores.
“I never participated in monitoring. There was a stir around that. I never participated. In fact, when I was asked, I was information. I did not plan operation, I did not know the operation. I had no contact with the people who were mentioned in this plan,” he said.
