Overview
- The Federal Police said it completed its main lines of inquiry and found no outside role in the hanging of Luiz Phillipi Mourão inside its Belo Horizonte facility.
- Investigators examined continuous security footage and reviewed phone records and interactions in custody before dismissing possible instigation.
- Security cameras recorded Mourão using a shirt to hang himself inside the unit, and police later confirmed brain death after a rescue attempt.
- The agency notified Supreme Court minister André Mendonça, who is the rapporteur for the related Master case, about the incident.
- Mourão, 43, was arrested in Operation Compliance Zero and is identified by the PF as part of ‘A Turma,’ a group allegedly funded by banker Daniel Vorcaro to monitor targets using restricted databases and to discuss intimidation, including threats to journalist Lauro Jardim.
