Minister Alexandre de Moraes, of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), rejected, on Saturday 28th, the request from Daniel Silveira’s defense to restore the freedom of the former federal deputy.
Daniel Silveira was arrested last Tuesday by the Federal Police (PF) following an order from Moraes, according to which the former deputy had not respected the conditions imposed to be released from prison, a benefit which had been granted to him days earlier.
The former MP’s defense classified the decision as “disproportionate, arbitrary, illegal and irrational”, arguing that it reflects a “persecutory spirit” and constitutes an “abuse of authority”. The lawyers further stated that all justifications were presented, but were not taken into consideration by the rapporteur.
In Saturday’s decision, Moraes says the allegations made by Silveira’s lawyers, including an alleged lack of knowledge of parole rules, reveal “bad faith” or “lack of knowledge of the legislation.”
“Only absolute bad faith or a deplorable lack of knowledge of criminal procedural legislation can justify the defense’s assertions. This same judicial restriction (prohibition of absence from the district and obligation to return at night, from 10.00 pm to 6.00 pm) morning, Saturday, Sunday and holidays), has recently been confirmed in over 1,100 cases relating to the 8/1 crimes, all observed in full and without any confusion of understanding”, says Alexandre de Moraes rejects the embargo of Silveira’s defense.
