Gustavo Gayer (-GO) was indicted by the Federal Police on suspicion of embezzling parliamentary quota money.
The funds must be used by deputies for activities and expenses related to their mandate — such as air tickets, car rentals, fuel and food, for example.
Gayer was in October last year. According to investigations, a criminal association used false documents to create an Oscip (Civil Society Organization of Public Interest) and aimed to benefit it with resources from Gayer’s parliamentary quota. The report was sent by the PF to the STF (Supreme Federal Court).
The PF says that the organization’s membership was made up of children aged 1 to 9 and that the operation was named Dyscalculia, a learning disorder related to numbers, “because a falsification was identified in the Minutes of the Assembly of the Oscip constitution, consisting of a retroactive date (year 2003)”.
The crimes investigated by the PF are the same for which Gayer was indicted: criminal association, ideological falsehood, forgery of private documents and embezzlement.
During the operation, the PF seized an aide from Gayer. In total, the corporation carried out 19 search warrants in Brasília and four other cities in Goiás: Cidade Oeste, Valparaíso de Goiás, Aparecida de Goiânia and Goiânia.
Gayer is expected to run across the state for a Senate seat. When contacted this Thursday, he did not respond until the publication of this text.
At the time of the operation last year, Gayer said that the action was aimed at harming Fred Rodrigues, a Bolsonarist candidate who ran, and lost, in the second round in Goiânia against Sandro Mabel (União Brasil).
He also stated that Minister Alexandre de Moraes, from the STF, the parliamentarian stated that the minister transformed the PF into “a dictator’s thugs”.
