On Friday (25), the Federal Supreme Court (STF) formed to maintain the immediate compliance with the arrest of former President Fernando Color.
The decision of the former president was arrested by Minister Alexander de Morais on Thursday evening (24) and sent to the virtual plenary session to verify the health of other judges on Friday (25).
The voice of ministers, Das Those, Edson Fashin, Luis Roberto Paroso and Cármen Lúcia in advance, followed the understanding of Moraaes.
In the morning, with the opening of the virtual plenary session, Minister Flevio Dino was accompanied by Maurice’s decision. Shortly later, Gilmar Mendes requested a prominent, that is, the case was submitted to the physical plenary session in order to make a greater discussion on the case.
Minister Cristiano Zanin said that he was prevented from judging the procedure because, before he was a minister, he was a lawyer in cases of lava.
Although there is a majority, the decision was not yet valid, but it works as a heat scale for how the ministers see the procedure. This is because when there is a prominent demand, the result is zero and restarted in the physical plenary session. That is, judges can change sounds.
It is up to the president of the court, Barroso, to determine when the issue will be evaluated in the physical plenary session. Earlier, the case can be scheduled as of May 7, because the Supreme Court will not have face sessions next week due to the May 1 holiday.
Understand
According to Mauric, the defense of Color had a “intention to delay” when she entered the second call, because he did not make new facts. However, the minister believed that it was necessary to comply with the decision immediately.
The Supreme Court has already denied the Collor feature, saying that his penalty was greater than the average votes of the ministers. In the new demand, the defense wanted to be considered the punishment proposed by the ministers who voted for the lighter penalties: André Mendona, Nunes Marquise, Dias Tofuli and Jillmar Mendes.
The minister rejected this appeal on Thursday. In the decision, he made it clear that this type of request is acceptable only when at least four ministers vote in favor of Total Prowittal, which did not happen, even if the crimes were analyzed separately.
Morais also recalled that STF has already decided that the differences over the size of the sentence do not allow this type of appeal. Finally, he stated that the Supreme Court allows the beginning of the prison even before the final publication of the decision, when the appeal only aims to delay the operation. According to the judge, this is what happened in this case.
In 2023, most of the court ministers realized that Color received $ 20 million of bribes between 2010 and 2014 to facilitate the construction of business from UTC Engnharia on BR Distribidora using its political influence as Sunator.
The values were washing to hide its illegal origin, and according to what was reported, the advantage was given in exchange for political support to refer to the managers of the state -owned company at the time.
In addition to arrest, Color was sentenced to prison:
- Pay 90 good days.
- He paid $ 20 million, Ranjit, an ethical damage (in conjunction with other convicts);
- Inability to occupy a public office or a job “to double the time of deprivation of the freedom applied”
