Overview
- Senator Eduardo Girão formally asked Prosecutor General Paulo Gonet to seek Dias Toffoli’s recusal or declare his impediment as relator of the Banco Master investigation.
- The representation cites reports of business dealings by Toffoli’s relatives with Reag-linked investment vehicles connected to the probe, including the sale of a stake in the Tayayá resort.
- It challenges Toffoli’s January 14 order that sent seized materials to the Supreme Court under seal, which initially restricted Federal Police access before the minister reversed the measure.
- Political pressure has intensified with lawmakers calling for recusal, an impeachment request submitted against Toffoli, and the Senate establishing a group to track the Master case.
- As of Monday, the PGR had not publicly stated whether it will take the matter to the Supreme Court or otherwise act on the representation.
