PT Leader of the House of Representatives Lindbergh Farias (PT-RJ) took to social media to criticize the fourth version of the Anti-Factional Bill (PL) report submitted by Rapporteur Guilherme Delight (PP-SP) on Wednesday night (12/11).
The deputy said the alternative proposed by Delight would fragment the budget allocated to combating organized crime and undermine the efficiency of PF operations.
“The alternative would also dismantle the policy of reducing the capital of factions by eliminating the special precautions provided for in the original project (…). As a result, this proposal would lose its backbone, namely the ability to quickly interdict illegal resources and reach the economic heart of criminal factions,” he wrote on social network X.
Lindbergh also accused the rapporteur of “inventing a category that has no legal basis” and trying to erase the term “criminal faction” introduced in the government’s original text.
“This kind of conceptual improvisation weakens criminal policy, confuses legal administrators, and obscures the real purpose: to undermine the technical and coherent proposals of the administration and replace them with a pile of empty concepts and contradictory devices,” he said.

critical point
Earlier, Delight met with the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Justice, Manoel Carlos de Almeida Neto, to discuss the document. One of the department’s criticisms was that the updated version presented by the rapporteur determines the general allocation of resources from the seizure of assets from drug traffickers and members of criminal organizations to state or local public safety funds.
In the government’s view, if searches, seizures and trials are carried out at the federal level, the amount must be allocated to the Fund for the Equipment and Operation of the Core Activities of the Federal Police (Funapol) and the National Prison Fund (Funpen).
Following the criticism, the rapporteur adjusted the text and stated that if the investigation was carried out by the PF, the amount would be allocated to the fund. If it is a local government responsibility, the funds go to the state or federal district public safety fund.
vote has been postponed
A vote on the project scheduled for Wednesday of this week was postponed at the request of Mr. Delight, who asked Chamber of Commerce President Hugo Motta (R-PB) to reschedule it to November 18th.
“I hope that, in response to the requests of several members of Congress and leaders, we will be able to give this debate a final direction and be able to debate it next Tuesday,” Delight said on stage.
Hugo Motta confirmed the postponement, canceling the leadership meeting scheduled for this Thursday (11/13) and informing that next Tuesday’s agenda will be solely on PL anti-faction.
