Minister of the Supreme Court ordered notify the federal deputy and journalist Paulo Figueiredo about the complaint of PGR for coercion in judicial proceedings; The 2 live in the USA
Minister Alexandre de Moraes, from (Supreme Federal Court), determined on Monday (29.Set.2025) that the federal deputy (PL-SP) be notified by a notice on the by (Attorney General’s Office) for coercion in judicial proceedings.
The measure was taken after the bailiff designated by the Supreme to summon the deputy to return the warrant of summons without fulfilling him. In criminal proceedings, the personal subpoena of the accused is mandatory.
Eduardo Bolsonaro is in the United States and is accused of fostering the commercial sanctions of the government of President Donald Trump (Republican Party) against Brazilian exports, the application of the magnitsky law and suspension of visas from the Ministers of the Court and members of the president’s government (PT).
In the decision, Moraes said that Eduardo has already stated through social networks to act with the United States and that the deputy is in that country to avoid liability in Brazil.
“In addition to expressly declaring that it is in foreign territory to steal itself to the application of criminal law, science is also unequivocal, by the accused Eduardo Nantes Bolsonaro, about the conduct imputed to him in the complaint offered in these records.”said Moraes.
Paulo Figueiredo
In the case of journalist Paulo Figueiredo, who was also denounced by the PGR, Moraes determined that the notification be performed by means of a rogatory letter, a citation procedure that involves the Brazilian and American diplomacy. The procedure was adopted because Figueiredo is a permanent resident in the United States.
The minister also determined that the complaint be dismembered in 2 processes and are proceeding separately.
Complaint
Last week, Eduardo and Paulo Figueiredo were reported to the Supreme for the crime of coercion in the course of the process. Both were investigated in the investigation that found their participation in promoting the United States’s tariff against Brazil and sanctions against members of the federal government and the Supreme.
In the complaint presented to the Supreme Court, the Attorney General, Paulo Gonet, said that Eduardo and Figueiredo helped promote “Severe sanctions” against Brazil to prevent the court from condemning the former president (PL) for the attempted coup d’état in 2022.
Otherwise
After being reported, Eduardo Bolsonaro and Paulo Figueiredo disqualified the PGR complaint and reaffirmed that they will continue to act with “International partners” so that new sanctions are applied to Brazilian authorities.
“Forget obscure agreements or intimidation they have used for years, because they do not work with us. This is true for this fake denunciation of Alexandre’s lackeys in PGR. The message given today is clear: the only sustainable way to Brazil is a broad, general and unrestricted amnesty, which puts the end to political impasse and allows the restoration of democratic and institutional normality.”they said.
