Brazil: Moro Testifies Against Bolsonaro Who Calls Him 'Judas'

Published 2 May 2020 (7 hours 22 minutes ago)

Brazil's former Justice Minister Sergio Moro testified Saturday before the Federal Police (PF) on allegations of political interference in the affairs of this institution made by President Jair Bolsonaro, who called him "Judas."

The former Minister testified before the Superintendence of the Federal Police in Curitiba, Parana, where he arrived accompanied by his lawyers to testify not only if Bolsonaro tried to interfere with the work of the PF but also in investigations related to legal proceedings against his sons.

The hearing began at 2:00 p.m. (local time) with no time to finish, according to one of Moro’s defense lawyers.

The statement was determined by the Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) Celso de Mello, who chairs the investigation.
