Jewelry: Minister of coup speech will report case – 08/03/2023 – Mônica Bergamo

The minister of the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU) Augusto Nardes was drawn to report on the case of jewelry sent as a gift by Saudi Arabia to Jair and Michelle Bolsonaro. The choice was made by lot.

IN THE BARRAGE

Nardes made headlines last year when he sent an audio to his agribusiness friends stating that “a very strong movement is taking place in the barracks” and in a matter of “hours, days, a week at the most” there would be a “denouement in the nation” of “unforeseen, unforeseeable” consequences.

NO TIME

He also said that he was in contact with Jair Bolsonaro’s “team” and that the then president was prepared to “face what will happen in the country”. Nardes stated that it would be “the worst moment that the nation will live”, but he believed that this would be “perhaps” important “to be able to recover”.

AT HOME

The speech was considered a coup and received criticism from TCU itself. The minister took a leave of absence from office for a few weeks.

IN MORALS

In the text in which it requests investigations, the Public Prosecutor’s Office with the TCU states that the “true extravagance now denounced” results in “affront to the principle of administrative morality”. And calls for in-depth investigations. Deputy Luciene Cavalcante (PSOL-SP) also made a representation to the Court.

OUT OF LINE

“Saudi Arabia’s alleged gift to former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro tried to break both the rules for the entry of jewels into the country, and the separation of what is public good and what is very personal in the presidential collection”, he said in his text the subprosecutor Lucas Furtado, from the MP next to the TCU.

ALL WEIRD

“It makes me very strange that jewels of this magnitude are trying to be received by the former president and the former first lady in subterfuge of differentiating what is or is not a public good”, he continued.

BEING AND OPINION

To government officials, the sub-attorney also said, “it is not enough to be honest; they also need to appear honest and concerned with the due zeal of public affairs”.
