The analysis of the cases will be carried out in a format in which the votes are transmitted electronically.
However, the examination can be interrupted if a minister requests a hearing or an in-person hearing of the cases.
The two mechanisms are provided for in the internal rules of the STF and can be activated by any judge.
The seven involved were arrested during the attacks on the buildings in the Plaza de los Tres Poderes in Brasilia and charged by the General Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic with the crimes of forcible abolition of the democratic rule of law, coup d’état, armed criminal association, qualified damage and aggravation of the demolished assets.
Minister Alexandre de Moraes of the STF authorized on Wednesday to share the final report of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI) on the anti-democratic incidents and all the evidence contained therein with the ongoing investigation in court.
Senator Eliziane Gama, ICC rapporteur, handed over the document to the lawyer on Tuesday.
The final text calls for the criminal prosecution of 61 people, including former President Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022).
According to De Moraes, the report reveals the approach used by digital militias to attack democracy, as well as the coupling of the Federal Highway Police and the failure of the central intelligence service “as serious tools for attacks on the electoral system and its institutions.” “
The ICC, the minister described, was investigating attempts to obstruct and later annul the elections, with road blockades, coup plots, the presence of paramilitary groups, the night of December 12 and the attempted explosion of the airport on December 24.
“Consequently, the ICC investigations analyze these connections with January 8, 2023 and the criminal invasions of the headquarters of the Three Powers of the Republic,” he explained.
According to De Moraes, the exchange of information must take place because “the understanding of the Supreme Federal Court regarding the possibility of exchanging elements of information collected in the area of investigation in order to initiate another criminal case is peaceful.”
Calling for military intervention and rejecting the takeover of power by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, radical supporters of Bolsonaro entered and looted the headquarters of the National Congress, the STF and the presidential palace on January 8th.
