Fachin lifts secrecy of new inquiry into Master after request from Moraes and approval from PGR

oglobo14 September 2026 at 16:11

The president of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Edson Fachin, lifted the secrecy of another procedure related to investigations into Banco Master fraud. The decision was made before Tuesday's trial regarding messages sent by former banker Daniel Vorcaro to Justice Alexandre de Moraes.

Fachin accepted the request made by Alexandre de Moraes through Office No. 11/2026, requesting that Justice André Mendonça lift the secrecy of Petition 15,645. The vice attorney general of the Republic, Hindemburgo Chateaubriand Filho, gave a favorable opinion on lifting the secrecy.

Moraes argued that there is a petition with "essential elements" for the discussion that would be held in the court's full session the following day. Fachin then determined that the Attorney General's Office should manifest itself on the topic before making the decision.

Why this matters

The decision allows information about the investigations into Banco Master fraud to be accessible to the public before an important trial at the STF. For readers, this means greater transparency in a case involving a former banker and a Supreme Court minister, potentially revealing new details about financial irregularities and communications between those under investigation.
