STJD Resumes Bruno Henrique Judgment With Final Votes Set for Today

The plenary reconvenes at 3 p.m. Brasília time to conclude voting after auditor Marco Aurélio Choy requested a review that paused proceedings earlier this week. Rapporteur Sérgio Henrique Furtado Coelho Filho backed acquittal under CBJD 243-A and application of CBJD 191 with a R$100,000 fine, a route that would not impose a match suspension. A first-instance decision in September had imposed a 12-match ban and a R$60,000 fine tied to an alleged intentional yellow card on November 1, 2023 against Santos, with the player active under a suspensive effect. Potential outcomes discussed include acquittal, reduced penalty, upholding the 12-match ban, or increasing it, with possible appeals to CAS and any cross-competition enforcement requiring CBF to seek FIFA notification. Parallel criminal actions continue after a Federal Police indictment in April and a MPDF complaint in June, while four amateur defendants—including the player’s brother—have already been suspended; Flamengo’s president voiced confidence in the tribunal and personally favored absolution.
