The Federal Police stated, in a note released this Friday, the 6th, that it never included information about the private life of banker Daniel Vorcaro in the reports produced within the investigation into irregularities at Banco Master and that it will open an investigation to investigate the leak of this data, which was sent to the INSS CPI.
In the note, the PF highlighted that information extracted from Vorcaro’s cell phone was shared with the CPI by decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and mentioned that it would not be up to the corporation to “edit conversations, select or manipulate data extracted from seized equipment, under penalty of even violating the right to adversarial proceedings and full defense, constitutionally guaranteed”.
“The Federal Police reaffirms that it operates in all its investigations following strict security standards in the processing of information and in the preservation and guarantee of fundamental rights, including respect for privacy and intimacy. No report, information from the judicial police or representation presented by the Federal Police, within the scope of Operation Compliance Zero, contained data that were not relevant to the investigations. Therefore, information related to the intimacy or private life of those being investigated was not included”, says the note.
Opportunity with security!
Vorcaro’s conversations with his girlfriend, Martha Graeff, became public in recent days. These conversations cited meetings between him and STF minister Alexandre de Moraes and parliamentarians. Furthermore, there were intimate conversations between the two. Because of this, Vorcaro’s defense asked the STF to open an investigation into the leak of this data.
The request was accepted by Minister André Mendonça, rapporteur of the Master case at the STF, who ordered the opening of the investigation. “The investigation procedure must have as its investigative hypothesis the eventual identification of those who had the duty to guard the confidential material and violated it, and not those who, in the legitimate exercise of the fundamental journalistic profession, obtained indirect access to information that, due to its intimate nature, should not have been publicized”, noted the minister.
