Protesters gather in front of the PF due to the arrival of former Minister Sérgio Moro, in Curitiba | Parana

There was an onset of confusion between the two groups with shouting and crowding, but the Military Police (PM) contained the situation. They have flags, a sound car, and shouting slogans.

Moro is to testify before delegates this Saturday about allegations that President Bolsonaro attempted to interfere with the FP’s work and in consultations related to family members. The charges were made when he announced his departure from government a week ago.

The investigation was authorized by the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and will investigate whether Moro’s charges are true. If they are not, the former minister may face justice on defamatory charges and crimes against honor.

The testimony was determined by the Minister Celso de Mello, rapporteur of the case, and will be collected in person by the PF delegates and accompanied by the lawyers who were authorized by the Minister Mello. They are: João Paulo Lordelo Guimarães Tavares, Antonio Morimoto and Hebert Reis Mesquita.

According to information from RPC, Moro will be heard in a large room at the recommended distance due to coronavirus and with personal protective equipment (PPE).

Messages exchanged by the former minister and revealed by the National Journal show that federal deputy Carla Zambelli (PSL-SP) tried to convince Moro to remain in office, amid the controversy surrounding the change of command of the Police Federal.

The MP offered to try to convince the President of the Republic to nominate him for a vacant position as STF minister. Moro left the government after Bolsonaro fired delegate Maurício Valeixo from the PF command.

The request to reduce the deadline for Moro to be heard was sent to the Supreme Court on Thursday afternoon (30) by three parliamentarians: Senator Alessandro Vieira (Cidadania-SE) and deputies Tabata Amaral (PDT-SP) and Felipe Rigoni. (PSB-ES).

“The seriousness of the accusations directed at the President of the Republic, in our opinion, added to the serious political crisis that the country is going through, leads us to believe that the period of 60 (sixty) days to carry out due diligence in the screen can be excessive, especially since the prolongation of the political crisis results in losses to combat the concomitant crises in Health and Economy. In this sense, the elasticity of the allowed time can result in an imminent risk of loss of evidence, “argued the congressmen .
