On Wednesday (29/06), the Federal Supreme Court (STF) asked for the Attorney General’s Office (PGR) to express its opinion on a request to investigate President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) for possible interference in the Federal Police (PF) during investigations into the corruption scheme in the Education Ministry (MEC). According to a phone call that was wiretapped by the Federal Police, on June 9th, Minister Ribeiro told one of his daughters that Bolsonaro had told him that he had “a feeling” that the former minister could be used in an attack against the President. In the call, Ribeiro also talks about the possibility of being the target of a search and apprehension operation, as it actually was, days later.
