This Tuesday morning (23), the Federal Police are carrying out two preventive arrest warrants and four search and seizure warrants in the 12th phase of Operation Lesa Pátria, which seeks to identify the alleged financiers or promoters of the January 8 acts.

The warrants are served in the Federal District and were authorized by the Federal Supreme Court (STF). The targets of this phase of the operation are investigated for the crimes of violent abolition of the Democratic State of Law, coup d’état, qualified damage, criminal association, incitement to crime, destruction and deterioration or destruction of specially protected property.

The PF did not inform the exact locations or connection of those involved with the acts that resulted in the invasion and depredation of the headquarters of the Three Powers. Operation Lesa Patria began days later.
