According to the MPF, the PF report was not included in the file and, therefore, there would be no reason to revoke the arrest
A PGR (Attorney General’s Office) spoke out against the release of the former director general of the PRF (Federal Highway Police) Silvinei Vasques, investigated for alleged interference by the corporation during the 2022 elections.
In confidential documents obtained by Power360the attorney general, Paulo Gonet, declared that the report of the investigation conducted in Federal Police (Federal Police) was not included in the files and that, given this, there would be no reasons to revoke the measure.
The document, signed on April 26, also mentions the request from Silvinei Vasques’ lawyers for the delegate responsible for the case to comment on the progress of the investigation and witness statements. In response, the STF (Federal Supreme Court) said it was “inconceivable” the defense “guide” investigative activity.
“Which reiterates the reasons why the defense cannot fight for the revocation of the arrest solely based on the time taken to complete the police investigation”says an excerpt from the decision.
Within the PF, the delegate responsible for the investigation left the case. Flávio Vietez Reis was transferred to the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, according to this digital newspaper. When questioned, the agency said that Vietez had not yet been appointed.
On April 3, Gonet spoke out against a request for release presented by Vasques’ defense. On April 5, in response, the minister reporting the case at the Supreme Court, Alexandre de Moraes, maintained the arrest, but ignored the deadline requested by the PGR.
Moraes had already denied requests for Silvinei’s release at least two other times in 2023. In the PF, according to the Power360, the investigations are already in the final phase. Two plea bargains were signed in the case.
Silvinei Vasques has been in prison since August 2023. He is being investigated for raids carried out by the PRF in Northeastern states during the general elections and for publishing messages in support of the former president’s candidacy Jair Bolsonaro (PL) on social media.
