PF Rejects Vorcaro's Second Plea Proposal

Overview

• The Polícia Federal formally rejected banker Daniel Vorcaro’s second delação premiada on Thursday, saying the annexes did not add new facts or corroborating proof to the Operation Compliance Zero investigation.
• After notifying Supreme Court relator André Mendonça, the PF asked the STF to transfer Vorcaro from the special carceragem to a common prison, citing a lack of substantive cooperation.
• The Procuradoria-Geral da República is still analyzing the material and has not issued a final position, with Vorcaro’s defense continuing to push for a favorable PGR opinion to revive negotiations.
• Investigators say they hold seized phones and documents that provide evidence and allow the inquiry to continue without a cooperation agreement from Vorcaro.
• The case has wide political and financial reach: media reports in the proposal allege payments to senior politicians but those claims are not confirmed by PF or PGR, and judicial homologation at the STF remains required for any plea deal to be used.
