โก๏ธ "Minister Alexandre de Moraes conducts the entire inquiry, adjusts testimonies, arrests without charges, engages in fishing expeditions for evidence, and has a very creative team. He does everything the law does not permit," Bolsonaro criticized.
โก๏ธ "We need to see what's in this PF indictment. I'll wait for my lawyer. This will obviously go to the Prosecutor General's Office. That's where the battle begins. I can't expect anything from a team that uses creativity to accuse me," the former president concluded.
โก๏ธ Jair Bolsonaro and 36 others were indicted by the Federal Police on Thursday (11/21) for alleged involvement in planning a coup d'รฉtat. On Wednesday, the PF conducted an operation that arrested six military personnel accused of plotting to assassinate President Lula and Minister Alexandre de Moraes.
โก๏ธ The PF revealed that one soldier approached the vicinity of Moraes' residence with the intent of arresting the magistrate.
โก๏ธ Bolsonaro's reference to the term "creativity" alludes to a message from Airton Vieira, an advisor to Moraes' office, to Eduardo Tagliaferro, the then head of the Special Advisory Office for Combating Disinformation at the Superior Electoral Court.
โก๏ธ "Use your creativity lol," Vieira wrote in response to Tagliaferro's concerns about the difficulty of formalizing a complaint against Revista Oeste.
