The president of the Supreme Federal Court, Edson Fachin, determined on Friday that the attorney general, Paulo Gonet, and minister André Mendonça present their positions on Federal Police intelligence reports made public by minister Alexandre de Moraes. The reports point to alleged irregularities committed by Mendonça in conducting the Compliance Zero investigation, which investigates fraud in the financial system, and Sem Desconto, regarding illegal embezzlement of retirements.
In the decision, Moraes states there are "strong indications" of administrative impropriety, abuse of authority, and crimes of responsibility by his colleague. Gonet and Mendonça will each have five days to present their considerations on the matter.
Fachin's decision also removes the report against Mendonça from the fake news inquiry, and both cases will now fall under the responsibility of the STF presidency.
