According to Pimenta, the government must respond to the case and “there cannot be any suspicion of an agreement to stifle the investigations” into the case.
“It’s time to install CPMI [Comissão Parlamentar Mista de Inquérito] in Congress and the CPI in the Chamber. The Brazilian people deserve transparency, rigorous investigation and accountability for those involved,” he wrote.
The deputy assumed the position of government leader in the Chamber after (PT-CE) was appointed Minister of Institutional Relations, responsible for the Planalto’s political articulation.
