Senator Says He Used ‘Persuasion Strategy’ And Is Persecuted For ‘One-Stop Tackling A Huge System’
the senator Marco do Val (Podemos-ES) affirmed Thursday evening, 15, that the operation carried out by the Federal Police in his office is an “attempt of intimidation” led by the Minister of Federal Court of Justice (STF) Alexander of Moraes. The parliamentarian also challenged the magistrate. “If I have been included as a possible suspect of an undemocratic act, the minister must also be included, because he was the one who asked me to go to this meeting,” he said in an interview with GlobeNews.
The meeting referred to by the senator is an alleged meeting, convened by Jair Bolsonaro (PL) and former MP Daniel Silveira, in which it was intended to stage a coup. Do Val says he was advised by Moraes to attend to get information.
The senator compared the current situation to an “ambush” devised by the minister. “It’s as if I were saying to you: ‘Look, go to where they’re dealing drugs, tell me what’s going on’. And then you come back and I put you in the investigation saying you’re a drug dealer”. he said during the interview.
In February, Moraes confirmed that he had indeed heard the plot denounced by the senator, but that the MP would have refused to formalize the complaint. The episode was classified by the minister as “ridiculous” and compared to a “Tabajara operation”. Do Val is under investigation for the crimes of disclosure of confidential documents, conspiracy, violent abolition of the democratic rule of law, coup d’état and criminal organization.
On Thursday, Do Val admitted that he lied to the press, using a strategy he called “persuasion.” “Since World War II this has been used, to commit the press to sending messages that I had to send, which were for ministers,” the senator said.
During Thursday’s operation, which raided the senator’s office, confiscated his cell phone and blocked his social networks, Do Val allegedly refused to testify. He said the Senate legal team would take up his case because “there was an invasion, an irregularity.”
According to the senator, in the testimony he had already given in the middle of the investigations to which he responds to the Federal Police, that is «the truthful version, with details also of the clothes that everyone was wearing. the press was nothing official. I used the strategy of persuasion.”
On social networks, Do Val accumulated publications in which he accused Moraes, Lula and Flávio Dino of deliberately prevaricating, in collusion, to “ambush” the demonstrators of the anti-democratic acts of January 8 in Brasilia. In Thursday’s interview, the Senator reiterated his publications and claimed to have in his office “documents placing STF and TSE on the Abin list,” which Moraes wanted access to. “I’m taking on a huge system on my own because the other senators have backed down,” the senator said.
