Overview
- Investigators requested authorization from Justice Cristiano Zanin to deepen inquiries into new actors, including a minister’s daughter, and to split off distinct lines of inquiry.
- The report describes Fource and its partners Haroldo Augusto Filho and Valdoir Slapak as the core operators with direct access to STJ offices via intermediaries.
- Data extracted from lobbyist Andreson de Oliveira Gonçalves’ cloud show R$ 4 million paid to a company tied to an STJ server’s wife as draft decisions from two ministers’ chambers were handled, with the server later dismissed by the court.
- Analysts say the lobbyist used coded language and false contact names that mimicked STJ staff to conceal dealings, while some saved names actually matched outside lawyers.
- A separate front will examine links to the J&F group after messages and transfers surfaced, including Andreson’s claim of receiving R$ 19 million and Coaf’s detection of R$ 15 million from JBS to his wife’s law office, which JBS says were lawful fees; the report also outlines alleged fraud patterns in agribusiness bankruptcies tied to Fource.
