Overview
- CPI chair Carlos Viana said he will ask the Supreme Federal Court for the preventive detention of Domingos Sávio de Castro following his appearance before the inquiry.
- Relator Alfredo Gaspar announced a new detention request and alleged the scheme siphoned R$500 million from retirees and pensioners using associations and call-center companies.
- COAF documents presented to the inquiry cite roughly R$4.8 million in transfers from UNASPUB to Castro, and CGU and Federal Police reports say a linked association provided no services while extracting funds.
- Castro relied on a partial habeas corpus granted by Justice Luiz Fux and declined to answer most questions, as a prior arrest request approved in September awaits review by STF relator André Mendonça.
- Poder360 reported the commission will also seek temporary arrests of three summoned figures, while separate preventive detention requests at the STF include Danilo Trento and Vinícius Ramos da Cruz.
