Minister Gilmar Mendes, of the STF (Supreme Federal Court), requested a review and suspended this Friday (22) the trial of the referendum on the preventive detention of Henry Vorcaro, father of the owner of Banco Master, Daniel Vorcaro.
Henrique and six others investigated in the bank’s financial fraud case were arrested on the 14th, in another phase of Operation Compliance Zero. Minister André Mendonça, who is the rapporteur of the case, was the first and only one to speak out. He voted to uphold his own decision.
The targets were members of the groups “A Turma” and “Os boys”, a structure made up of people with a “hacker profile” and focused on threats and obtaining confidential data.
According to the investigationHenrique occupied a prominent position as plaintiff and financial payments operator and “Class”. He is accused of funding the nucleus and being one of the beneficiaries of the financial scheme.
With the determination of prisons, the ministers of the Second Panel need to assess whether they agree and maintain André Mendonça’s decision. The case is being analyzed in a virtual session, a model in which magistrates have one week to register votes in the system.
In addition to Mendonça, ministers Gilmar Mendes, Kassio Nunes Marques and Luiz Fux participate in the trial.
Dias Toffoli, who is also part of the Second Panel, must declare himself a suspect and not participate in the vote, as he has done in all cases related to Banco Master.
Suspicion is a legal instrument in which judges refrain from participating in a trial due to doubts about their impartiality due to ties such as friendship with the parties, interest in the case, among others.
