Lula cites orgies and fears leaks from the Master case
The president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said that many people fear leaks from the investigations into the Master Bank and cited orgies when commenting on the case. The statements were made in an interview, in which he also defended breaking confidentiality and mentioned involvement of authorities.
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said in an interview that many people fear leaks of investigations into the Banco Master and cited orgies when commenting on the case. The statement comes amid requests from the government and the PT to break all secrecy related to the count, which involves the businessman Augusto Vorcaro. Lula also attributed the creation of the bank to the government of Jair Bolsonaro and mentioned alleged billionaire embezzlement.
According to the president, Vorcaro became a banker and created the Banco Master during the government of Jair Bolsonaro (PL). Lula also attributed to the businessman an embezzlement of R $ 60 billion and said that the case would have involved other banks, in addition to pension funds from state governments. The source did not detail which financial institutions or funds would be related.
Investigations used electorally, says Lula
The president and the PT consider that the investigations into the Banco Master are being used electorally. Therefore, they call for the breaking of all the secrecy involved in the case. The allegation is that the disclosure of partial information could favor political opponents, although the source has not specified which elections would be at stake.
In the interview, Lula said that the case involves people from different sectors of the Republic. According to him, there would be ministers of Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), deputies and senators related to the information obtained by the investigation. The president did not name names, but said “everyone is there.”

Judicial reform is coming later.
The petista once again defended a reform of the Judiciary, but stated that the case Banco Master needs to be solved first. “Before we make this reform, we have to solve this problem. They're all over there. There you have five ministers who are connected directly and indirectly,” he said. The statement suggests that the investigation could reveal sensitive connections between authorities and the bank, which would justify postponing structural changes in the judiciary.
The mention of “five ministers” was not detailed by the president. The source did not say whether they would be ministers of the STF, of higher courts or of other courts. The statement, however, reinforces the tone of gravity given by Lula to the case.
Meeting with Vorcaro and closing of the bank
According to the president, Vorcaro came to him to complain about the difficulties faced by the bank. Lula said he replied that the government would conduct an investigation and that, if the institution were regular, it would not be closed. “And we closed because it wasn’t right,” he said. The statement indicates that the government has identified enough irregularities to decree the closure of the Banco Master, although the source has not detailed the administrative process.
Lula also said the investigation identified transactions with securities that he said did not exist. He also claimed that Vorcaro had attempted to corrupt authorities. The source did not detail which titles would be fictitious or which authorities would have been the target of attempted corruption.
Request for caution and “pyrotechnics”
The president has advocated that the information be cleared before any conclusion is reached. He said the government should not do “pyrotechnics” before completing the investigations. The speech suggests that Lula wants to avoid a hasty public trial, although he himself cited orgies and leaks during the interview.
The mention of orgies by the president was not contextualized by the source. There are no details about who he was referring to or under what circumstances such events would have occurred. The statement, however, reinforces the climate of apprehension around the case.
Why it matters
The Banco Master case involves serious charges, such as billionaire embezzlement, non-existent titles, and attempts to corrupt authorities. The possible participation of ministers of STF, deputies and senators raises the political scope of the investigation. The request for breaking of secrecy, if accepted, can expose sensitive details and fuel public debate.
For the reader, the unfolding of the case can influence the political and economic environment, as well as test the independence of institutions. The government, in turn, tries to balance the need for transparency with the risk of electoral use of information.
