The Federal Police in São Paulo fulfilled, on the afternoon of this Tuesday (23), eight search and seizure warrants and four arrest warrants, issued by the 1st Federal Court in Avaré, in the second phase of Operation Jurumirim, launched on August 27 this year.
According to the investigation, shell companies were used to evade taxes and hide illicit financial transactions, originating mainly from cigarette smuggling. The tax evasion is around R$25 million.
Those involved can be held responsible for crimes of criminal association, tax evasion, misrepresentation, use of false documents and laundering, in the form of concealment.
For this operation, 45 federal police officers carried out court orders in the cities of Avaré, Itaí, Botucatu, Sorocaba and Guarulhos. The action was supported by the Special Action Group to Combat Organized Crime (Gaeco), of the Federal Public Ministry.
