The elected mayor of São Gonçalo, Captain Nelson (Avante), had his name mentioned in the final report of the CPI of the Militias, of 2008. But his candidacy was accepted by the Regional Electoral Tribunal (TRE) without him having any conviction in Justice. According to the retired military police campaign, his citation in the Rio Legislative Assembly commission document (Alerj) was based on two calls to the hotline, and he was not charged at the time. Captain Nelson won the second round this Sunday at the second largest electoral college in Rio, with 50.79% of the valid votes, compared to 49.21% for his opponent, Dimas Gadelha (PT).
According to advisers to the now-elected mayor, he evaluates the work of the CPI as an important contribution to the fight against crime in Rio, but that his name was mentioned incorrectly. In an interview with “Extra” on the eve of the first round, Captain Nelson had already argued the same.
– I think a mistake was made when quoting my name from a hotline, because there is no investigation, nothing. It doesn’t have my name in the report, so I can’t blame the deputy (Marcelo Freixo, who chaired the CPI). His only mistake was posting a hotline, which anyone can pick up the phone and call. What happened was “branding gossip,” he said.
According to the report, which cites data from the Disque-Milícia created in that period, the then-elected councilor in São Gonçalo would be suspected of leading a group of 14 civil and military police officers who would work in the Jardim Catarina neighborhood, one of the most populated from District. . They would charge security fees for residents and businesses, offer clandestine cable television services, and explore alternative transportation with a kind of toll so drivers could get around. The record of Captain Nelson’s candidacy at the TRE, however, shows that nothing is against him in the state and federal courts.
Before retiring, Captain Nelson served most of his career in the PM battalion based in São Gonçalo. He was also responsible for the security of Judge Patricia Acioli, murdered by police officers linked to a militia that operated in the municipality in 2011. It was between late 2001 and early 2002, when he was approached by the judge after receiving threats. of death.
– I stayed with her for about six months, as we had already revealed that plan, there was no need to stay. I told him I wanted to pursue a career in PM, because at that time I had passed an internal contest and was continuing my professional life as a policeman – Captain Nelson said in an interview with “Extra”, published on November 13.
