Vote by Gilmar Mendes set the score at 6 to 1 to accept the complaint
Brasilia DF) – The Federal Supreme Court (STF) formed a majority in favor of receiving the complaints against 250 people involved in the coup acts of January 8 in Brasília, when the headquarters of the Three Powers were vandalized. This brings the total number of defendants to 550.
With the demonstration of the electronic vote of Minister Gilmar Mendes this Sunday (7), the score was 6 to 1. He accompanied the vote of the rapporteur of the cases, Minister Alexandre de Moraes, to make defendants defendants. The rapporteur’s vote also followed, accepting the accusations, ministers Dias Toffoli, Cármen Lúcia, Edson Fachin and Rosa Weber.
The only contrary vote was that of André Mendonça, who rejected the complaint against 200 people, but voted for acceptance against another 50. Mendonça did not include the accused who were arrested the day after the incident, when they were camped at the Army Headquarters.
Luís Roberto Barroso, Nunes Marques and Luiz Fux still need to vote. Due to the retirement of Ricardo Lewandowski, the Court does not have the vote of the 11th minister.
The trial began last Wednesday (3) and continues until Monday (8), in the virtual plenary of the STF, a modality in which justices deposit their votes electronically, without in-person deliberation.
