Senators Alessandro Vieira (Citizenship), Fabiano Contarato (Rede) and Randolfe Rodrigues (Rede) presented a request for an investigation into the work of Augusto Aras at the head of the Attorney General’s Office. The representation was delivered to the Superior Council of the Federal Public Ministry. The document highlights the ‘lack of prominence’ of the prosecutor in cases involving the current management of the federal government, as well as the note, signed by Aras, which implied that President Jair Bolsonaro (without a party) could evoke the Defense, if La Political instability worsens in the country.

For the senators, Augusto Aras abstains from exercising his function of investigating possible crimes and crimes committed by the Federal Government and its palaces. The document highlights a report by Estadão, which revealed that of the 33 “defeats” suffered by the Government in the Supreme Court last year, only one originated in the PGR and, however, it was still under the direction of Raquel Dodge. The congressmen consider that ‘it causes a real strangeness that the Hon. The Attorney General of the Republic apparently wants to “wash his hands” of his constitutionally established functional role, by improperly trying to transfer the claim of responsibility of the main political agents to the Legislative Power. “

Senator Randolfe Rodrigues questioned the prosecutor’s passive conduct. “If a prosecutor can answer for violating the commandments of the Organic Law that disciplines his career, how can he sustain immunity from the Attorney General? He must be the first to set an example.” Alessandro Vieira, for his part, said that senators have been “turning a blind eye” in relation to the behavior of “high authorities. For him, the Legislative Chamber sends “a message of compassion and indulgence that instigates the commission of crimes of responsibility” with his position. “When the weight of the law is not felt, all kinds of irregularities are encouraged,” he concluded.

WITH THE WORD, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE REPUBLIC

The report was communicated with the Office of the Attorney General of the Republic and was still waiting for a response until the publication of this article. The space remains open to demonstrations.
