The Military Police of the Federal District were called on the morning of Tuesday, 16th, after finding suspicious objects in the external parking lot of a car rental company close to Brasília International Airport.
Agents from Operation Petardo, a protocol adopted against terrorist actions in the federal capital, moved to check the objects at around 9 am. After analysis by the bomb squad and subjecting the objects to a scanner, the police were unable to reach a conclusion about the nature of the artifacts, defining the need for detonation.
The site was isolated and controlled detonation carried out. Then, a reanalysis of the wreckage was carried out in the search for objective conclusions. Even with the opening of the objects through detonation, the result remained inconclusive. According to the PM, the site was preserved for an analysis that is now being carried out by the Civil Police of the Federal District.
Despite police actions throughout the morning, the airport's landing and takeoff operations were not affected, as only the parking lot at the location was closed.
