Toffoli Reverses Order, Sends Seized Master Case Devices to PGR for Analysis

Overview

• Federal Police executed the second phase of Operação Compliance Zero with 42 searches in five states, froze or seized R$5.7 billion, temporarily detained Fabiano Campos Zettel, and targeted businessman Nelson Tanure and Reag founder João Carlos Mansur.
• Dias Toffoli initially ordered all seized items sealed at the Supreme Court and criticized the PF for missing a 24‑hour window, then accepted a PGR request to receive the material directly and conduct data extraction.
• PF director Andrei Rodrigues said logistical needs to update addresses and targets in transit delayed execution and warned that postponing analysis risked encryption, remote blocking or loss of digital evidence.
• Investigators collected dozens of phones and computers plus cash, vehicles and luxury goods as inquiries zero in on alleged diversion of funds through a web of investment vehicles tied to Reag, with suspected money laundering, market manipulation and fraudulent management.
• Broader context includes a Banco Master shortfall estimated at R$41 billion with roughly 1.6 million depositors awaiting FGC payouts, as ongoing freezes and forensic work seek to secure assets and map beneficiaries of the suspected scheme.
