PGR defends prison sentences and asks Fachin to decide in the Master case

The Attorney General's Office (PGR) presented to Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) strategic positions on the Banco Master case and the Zero Compliance and No Discount operations. The body advocates the continuation of the arrest of four investigators and proposes that Minister Edson Fachin concentrate the urgent decisions of the investigations. The measure seeks to ensure agility and continuity of processes, avoiding lockdowns due to bureaucratic issues or conflicts of competence.

According to the PGR, the original rapporteur, André Mendonça, is also cited in counting fronts, which justifies the transfer of urgent individual decisions to the president of STF, Edson Fachin. The idea is that requests for freedom or questions about evidence be promptly analyzed. Any appeals against Fachin’s decisions would be brought directly to the Court’s Plenary.

Precautionary prisons must be maintained

Attorney General Paulo Gonet has formally protested against the release of four people linked to Banco Master: Daniel Monteiro, Henrique Vorcaro, Fabiano Zettel and Felipe Vorcaro. The defense of these investigators asked for the review of precautionary prisons, which are those applied before a definitive conviction to ensure public order or the instruction of the process.

For the PGR, the reasons that justified the arrests at the beginning remain valid and there was no change in the facts that allowed the release. Now it is up to the ministers of the Supreme Court to decide whether to keep the group in jail. The source did not detail the specific grounds of the arrests but indicated that the maintenance is essential to the integrity of the investigations.

Fachin focuses on urgent decisions

PGR’s proposal is for Edson Fachin to take responsibility for urgent individual decisions in the Compliance Zero and No Discount operations processes. This includes the analysis of requests for release, precautionary measures and questions about the validity of evidence. The justification is to prevent investigations from holding back due to bureaucratic issues or conflicts of competence.

As the original rapporteur, André Mendonça, is quoted in fronts of counting, the PGR believes that the concentration in Fachin would bring more speed. The measure does not affect the final judgment, which remains with the college. Appeals against Fachin's monocratic decisions would be taken to the Plenary, ensuring control by the other ministers.

Archive of representation against Mendonça

In addition to the arrests, the PGR recommended the filing of a criminal representation against Minister André Mendonça. The representation was initiated following the suggestion of Alexandre de Moraes, based on reports from the Federal Police. After analysis, the Public Prosecutor’s Office concluded that the police intelligence documents do not bring evidence of crimes.

According to the PGR, the reports contain only hypotheses, conversations and suspicions that do not justify a formal investigation. The archival recommendation will still be reviewed by the STF. The source did not detail the content of the reports or the dates of the alleged conduct.

Next steps in the STF

With the demonstrations of the PGR, the Supremo Tribunal Federal should decide on the maintenance of the prisons and the delegation of competence to Fachin. There is no set deadline for these decisions. The case remains under secrecy, and new information may arise as the process progresses.

The outcome will have a direct impact on the investigators and the continuity of Compliance Zero and No Discount operations. The company follows closely, as the case involves financial institutions and judicial authorities. The Boca no Trombone portal will continue to update the information as new developments unfold.
