Bolsonaro publishes a video in which he hugs a child and is silent about the jewelry scheme


According to the Federal Police, the former president would have been the beneficiary of the sale of items received on official trips

Without saying anything Operation Luke 12:2, who investigates a jewelry-selling scheme of his allies, former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) posted this Saturday morning, 12, a short video on his social networks in which he hugs a child. With the exception of the post, Bolsonaro has remained silent since the outbreak of the Federal Police operation this Friday the 11th.

In posting on his Twitter, the former president limited himself to writing “Happy Saturday everyone!” and they appear hugging a girl and posing for pictures with her, among well-wishers. There is no indication of when the registration was made. In the background of the 16-second video, dramatic music plays. There is no mention of the operation in which the Federal Police point out a plan to sell items received on official trips to enrich the former president.

Bolsonaro’s lawyers demonstrated on Friday evening, 11. In a statement, they said that the former president “reiterates that he has never appropriated or stolen any public property”.

The operation, which refers to the biblical verse that says that “there is nothing hidden that will not be discovered” has as its objectives the general Mauro Cesare Lourena Cidfather of former aide-de-camp Mauro Cid; The lawyer Frederick Wasef, representing the former Chief Executive Officer; and the lieutenant Osmar Crivellatti, also a former Bolsonaro aide. He was authorized by the Minister of Federal Supreme Court (STF) Alexander of Moraes who argued that “there are strong indications of high asset value assets being diverted”.

According to the PF, the proceeds from the sales were converted into cash and entered the former president’s personal assets, through oranges and without using the formal banking system, with the aim of hiding the origin, location and ownership of values.

Former First Lady, Michael Bolsonaro (PL) also appears in the case. Although she is not being investigated in the case that gave rise to the operation, she is mentioned in one of the exchanges of messages between the former aides-de-camp. Former councilor Marcelo Câmara tells Mauro Cid that some of the objects are missing, attributing responsibility for one of them to Michelle. “Because one that belonged to Michelle is already missing,” he said.
