Dallagnol referred to Lula as “master” and “commander” of this corrupt plot, accusing him of a series of facts that did not appear in the complaint that he broke down during that press conference, says the TSJ statement.
The instructor of the case, Judge Luis Felipe Salomão, has indicated that the “spectacularization” of that episode not only “is not compatible with the seriousness that an investigation requires”, but also Dallagnol deviated from the law when he described Lula in that way.
That presentation was related to the Guarujá triplex case for which Lula was convicted of corruption and money laundering, which was finally archived in May 2022 after it was demonstrated the partiality shown during the process by his former instructor, former judge Sérgio Moroultimately the president’s first justice minister, Jair Bolsonaro.
That case – annulled a year earlier by the Supreme Federal Court (STF) of Brazil due to Moro’s malpractice – assured that former President Lula would have allowed himself to be corrupted by the construction company OAS in exchange for a series of public contracts through the state-owned Petrobras, according to the statement of the former president of this company, Léo Pinheiro, who is serving house arrest.
Moro’s proximity to the prosecutors of the ‘Lava Jato’ special team could be read in a series of messages leaked to the Brazilian press that were fundamental for the majority of the judges of the Supreme Court to rule in favor of Lula and consider that the former judge he would not have acted impartially.
At the beginning of March of last year, Supreme Court Judge Edson Fachin annulled the sentence of twelve years and one month in prison for corruption and money laundering against Lula issued by a court in Curitiba, considering that he did not have the authority to do so and that he was to be retried in federal court.
As a result, the former president resumed his political rights and total freedom to present himself as a candidate for the presidential elections that will take place this year in Brazil and in which, according to the polls, he starts as the favorite.
It should be remembered that when Lula entered prison on April 7, 2018, it also meant his disqualification as a candidate when he was the favorite in the polls for the presidential elections on October 7 of that year, in which Bolsonaro finally won, who appointed Moro as Minister of Justice.
