The Director-General of the National Public Security Secretariat, which is related to the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, Mario Salubbothe report of the Deputy Federal Secretary asserted that: Guilherme Delight (PP-SP) of anti-faction project This is unconstitutional and omits the provisions of the document sent by the government. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva An attempt was made to economically suppress criminal organizations. fart valuethe Secretary said that Mr. Delight actually, in his opinion, equated each faction to a terrorist group.
In defining the duties of the Federal Police (PF), the Federal Constitution states that it is the responsibility of this agency to act on “acts with interstate effects” and “prevention and suppression of the illegal trade in narcotics and similar drugs,” i.e., the type of actions carried out by criminal factions. However, Delight ruled that the PF can only be invoked by the Ministry of Justice “in response to the provocation of the state governor.”
PF said in a statement that it was following Mr Delight’s report “with concern”. The agency also said the document placed “significant restrictions” on the PF’s actions, making it difficult to combat organized crime.
For Salubbo, it is unconstitutional to limit the actions of the PF by stipulating that the Ministry of Justice can order the actions of the PF only after provocation by the governor. “Now we cannot say that only the governor authorizes[the PF’s actions],” stressed the former attorney general of São Paulo’s Public Ministry.
The Enforcement Directorate and the PT are trying to spread the narrative on social media that reporters are “protecting” criminal organizations by restricting the use of PF powers. This strategy is similar to the one that was successful during the Constitutional Amendment Bill (PEC) debate, which made it difficult to launch investigations against members of parliament. shield PEC.
On another front, one of the government’s key bets in a letter sent to Parliament to combat organized crime was to promote preventive seizures of assets, which was not included in the report released last Sunday by the Deputy Commissioner. The device’s main purpose is to “economically strangle” these criminal groups, Salubbo explained.
“He (Mr Delight) did not (in his opinion) involve civil asset forfeiture, i.e. extinguishment of the domain,” the Commissioner explained. In the opinion of the former Attorney General of São Paulo’s Public Ministry, this change further weakens the law’s effectiveness in fighting factions.
Although he rejected the idea of equating sects with terrorists, he equated the actions of both criminal groups because they have “symmetrical” effects and consequences, he said. But for Salubbo, the document released by Delight effectively equated the sect with a terrorist group, putting national sovereignty at risk.
“Will the United States ask whether it is terrorism or amounts to terrorism, in order to know whether it can intervene (in Brazilian territory)? Of course not,” the head of state security stressed.
In an interview this Monday (10th), Delight defended his report and said he was talking to all sectors to present a consensus project. He said a new opinion needs to be submitted with adjustments to address questions about each agency’s capacity.
