Minister of Justice says he remains “fearless”, “independent” and “faithful” to his principles; earlier, Lula defended Dino
The Minister of Justice and Public Security, Flavio Dino, thanked this Wednesday (November 15, 2023) for the messages of support he has received after the repercussions of the case of the “drug lady” in Amazonas. Luciane Barbosa Farias, married to Clemilson dos Santos Farias, “Uncle Scrooge”, appointed as leader of the CV (Comando Vermelho), was received by secretaries of the ministry commanded by Dino on two occasions.
In recent days, politicians who oppose the president’s government Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) have criticized the presence of the “Amazonian drug lady” in meetings of the Ministry of Justice and Public Security. Despite the comments, Dino stated that he continues “the same way”: “excited, fearless, independent, faithful to my principles and praying every day”.
According to the minister, he received “thousands” message of support and solidarity from “colleagues from the legal community, governors, senators, deputies, political parties, civil society” and citizens. “The rest doesn’t matter. As my late father used to say, ‘the effect of a redoxon in an Olympic swimming pool’”wrote in a publication in X (ex-Twitter).

LULA DEFENDS DINO
Earlier, Lula came to Dino’s defense: “My solidarity with Minister Flávio Dino who has been the target of absurd artificially planted attacks. He has already said and reiterated that he has never met the wife of a criminal faction leader. There isn’t a single photo, but they’ve been insisting on the absurd lie for several days.”wrote the president on X (formerly Twitter).
Lula said that the ministry’s actions awaken many opponents, who do not conform to the “loss of money and space for their criminal activities”and justified the attacks on Dino by his actions against criminals.
“Hence the fake news spread in a clear coordinated action. We reiterate: there will be no retreat in the face of criminals and their allies, wherever they are, whoever they are.”stated the president.
