Report of the Judicial Power reveals that businessman Paulo Silva made a deal to receive 30,000 euros from that newspaper to give an interview on the alleged corrupt payments to handball referees and soccer players. Octávio Ribeiro says that the accusation is “surreal” and that he is “sure” that “a penny of the Correio da Manhã budget” did not come out. The listening reveals complaints from Paulo Silva for not receiving the agreed amount

The final report of the Judicial Police on the Cashball case reveals that businessman Paulo Silva reached an agreement with the “Correio da Manhã journalists” to receive from the newspaper an amount of 30,000 euros to give an interview on the case. The document, to which Expresso had access, indicates that in the telephone interceptions, which are in one of the 11 incorporated into the process, “it can be verified that Paulo Silva has established contacts with journalists to give an interview on the facts investigated in the that a compensation will have been stipulated for the amount of 30 thousand euros (20 thousand for talking about football and 10 thousand for talking about handball) ”.

The Judicial Branch adds that “although Paulo Silva was notified of the confidentiality of the process, he granted an interview to the newspaper” Correio da Manhã “in which he revealed all the content of the object of investigation in this case, which corroborates the content of the telephone interceptions described above ”.

However, a listening between Paulo Silva and his lawyer, Carlos Macanjo, shows that the amount has not been paid, since the businessman claims that the agreement has not been fulfilled and the lawyer tells him that he should have made a written contract with Cofina .

Otávio Ribeiro, director of the newspaper, says that “Correio da Manhã does not pay, nor does it pay for interviews or statements.” And that the statement is “crazy, it’s surreal.” And he is sure: “The budget of the Correio da Manhã did not leave 30 thousand, three thousand or even three cents” to pay for any interview.
