Overview
- The Supreme Court's work on Operation Compliance Zero is effectively stalled after a pedido de vista by Minister Flávio Dino and a temporary reassignment of case management left relatoria unsettled.
- The Polícia Federal produced a roughly 500 gigabyte compressed extraction of Daniel Vorcaro's seized cellphone and sent copies to multiple ministers, but Cristiano Zanin, Gilmar Mendes and Alexandre de Moraes opened theirs while André Mendonça and Luiz Fux reported they could not access the files and asked the PF for technical help.
- Relator André Mendonça lifted secrecy on a PF report that linked messages from Vorcaro to high-level officials and asked the plenary to authorize investigations into Minister Alexandre de Moraes, a move that prompted Moraes to file counter-accusations and deepened the institutional conflict.
- Vorcaro's lawyers asked STF President Edson Fachin to revoke the ex-banker’s preventive detention, arguing that the court paralysis has let mandatory judicial reviews lapse and that he has been held without timely reconsideration of the detention order.
- The PF says the extraction was processed with forensic software (IPED) and kept under formal chain-of-custody controls but the technical access problems at two ministers' offices risk prolonging the freeze on probes and heighten political pressure on the court ahead of the elections.
