Overview

• Antônio Carlos Camilo Antunes, arrested by the Federal Police on September 12, is accused of operating a scheme of illicit associative discounts on retirees’ and pensioners’ benefits.
• A prior order by Supreme Court minister André Mendonça allowed him to skip a summons from the inquiry, but the committee president says his defense now committed to his attendance.
• Lawmakers plan votes on roughly 30 measures, including summoning Rodrigo Moraes, seeking preventive detention of lawyer Nelson Wilians Fratoni Rodrigues, and requesting his Coaf financial intelligence report for 2019 to 2024.
• Federal Police reports cite about R$53 million moved through firms linked to Antunes, alleged gifts to INSS officials such as a R$500,000 Porsche transferred to a prosecutor’s wife, and seizures of luxury cars and high‑end properties including a cash purchase in Brasília’s Lago Sul.
• Earlier this week the panel ordered the arrest of a former director tied to Antunes for alleged false testimony during a hearing, and the case was forwarded to federal court after his release.
