Out-of-Rio Governor Wilson Witzel (PSC) left the group for a messaging app that brings together secretaries of state after the court determined his temporary removal from office and prevented contact with the team.

Witzel is suspected of corruption. The suspicion is that the governor received, through his wife Helena Witzel’s law firm, at least R $ 554.2 thousand in enrollment.

The discovery of the criminal scheme began with the investigation of irregularities in the hiring of field hospitals, respirators and medicines to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.
The Attorney General’s Office (PGR) states that the RJ government has established a bribery scheme for emergency contracting and for the release of payments to social organizations (OS) that provide services to the government, especially in the areas of Health and Education.
According to prosecutors, the governor has “active participation in the knowledge and domain of contracting with the investigated companies.” The exchange of emails would show suspicion.
According to the complaint presented by the PGR to the STJ, Wilson Witzel “accepted a promise and received an undue advantage in the amount of R $ 274,236.50 (two hundred seventy-four thousand two hundred thirty-six reais fifty cents), offered and paid by the businessman Mário Peixoto “.
The other part of the rate that Witzel receives is R $ 280 thousand paid by the Jardim Amália Hospital (Hinja), in Volta Redonda, in the south of Rio de Janeiro, which belongs to the family of Gothardo Lopes Netto, former mayor of the city.
Commentators analyze Witzel’s departure:
According to the STJ, the violation of Wilson Witzel’s telematic secrecy allowed him to identify two emails he sent to his wife, Helena Witzel, with the service contract between his law firm and the hospital. The document indicates that he would receive R $ 30 thousand a month from the hospital. The researchers found that he received R $ 280 thousand from this contract
According to the accusation sent to the STJ, the hiring of the law firm consisted of an artifice to allow the indirect transfer of securities from Mário Peixoto and Gothardo Lopes Netto to Wilson Witzel.
