The Federal Police carried out on Thursday an operation authorized by Judge Flavio Dino that places Mário Frias again as a target of investigations involving public resources. The case is related to the film "Dark Horse" (Cavalo de Aço), a biopic of former President Jair Bolsonaro.
The investigations are looking into a possible misappropriation of R$ 750 thousand destined for the production company responsible for the film. Mário Frias, who had already been mentioned in previous investigations, is again pointed out as the beneficiary of the funds under suspicion.
The operation reignites questions about the campaign financial reporting related to the film. The authorities want to clarify how the public resources were used and whether there was misuse of funds in the production of the biopic.
The full content of the investigation is restricted to subscribers of the media outlet. Those interested need to access the article link and register to have access to the details of the operation and the evidence collected by the Federal Police.
