Brazil's Supreme Court removed the director-general of the Federal Police and the corporation's Intelligence Director. The decision was made by Minister André de Mendonça.
The removal is related to alleged illegal surveillance of authorities. The allegedly surveilled authorities are not specified in the article.
Minister André de Mendonça also prohibited the Federal Police from continuing to produce reports on the functional performance of judges or public lawyers. This additional measure indicates that the reports produced could have been related to the alleged illegal surveillance.
