Former Mandator was summoned to testify in the investigation that investigates the alleged performance of the federal deputy licensed in the United States against Brazilian authorities
The former president confessed on Thursday (5) that he sent $ 2 million to his son Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) licensed deputy who is living in the United States. “I put money on his account, quite even clean, cool money, to Pix,” the former president told a news conference after testifying for about two hours to the Federal Police. “You know that back there, I did not campaign, but I was deposited in my account $ 17 million and I put $ 2 million in his account. Outside everything is more expensive, I have two grandchildren, one of 4 and one one year old, he is out there, I do not want to spend difficulty,” added that there is no “work” or “lobby” from Eduardo in the United States.
The former Mandanker was summoned to testify in the inquiry that investigates the alleged performance of the federal deputy licensed in the United States against Brazilian authorities, and says he is proud of what his son has done. Eduardo Bolsonaro moved to Washington in February, arguing that Brazilian courts would try to ban him from leaving the country. He is accused of trying to influence President Donald Trump’s allies to impose sanctions against Federal Supreme Court (STF) ministers.
For the PGR, this conduct can configure crimes such as coercion in the course of the process, obstruction of investigations into criminal organization and attempted violent abolition of the rule of law. The testimony of the former president, 70, will be made before his interrogation next week before the Federal Supreme Court (STF), in his trial for the attempted coup against President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) in 2022. In this case, he may be sentenced to approximately 40 years in prison.
