According to Sheet As it turned out, the conversation was in a group of PM officers and served as the basis for the new arrest warrant against the major in the 12th phase of Lesa Pátria, launched this Tuesday (23).

The message was found on the police officer’s cell phone, seized on February 7 in the 5th phase of the operation, when he was arrested for the first time.

Silvestre appears in images on the day of the coup attacks directing police from the Shock Battalion to leave an access road close to the STF (Federal Supreme Court). With the police retreating, the path to the Supreme Court was free and supporters of Jair Bolsonaro (PL) invaded the building.
