Overview
- The defense asked Minister Alexandre de Moraes to revoke Filipe Martins’ preventive detention and to formally solicit an opinion from the Prosecutor General’s Office.
- Technical logs submitted by the defense indicate the last LinkedIn login occurred on September 13, 2024 from a U.S. IP address that lawyers say corresponds to an attorney acting for Martins.
- The filings assert there was no access to the account after the December 26 order restricting social media use, countering the justification cited for custody.
- Moraes ordered Martins’ arrest on January 2 after the defense previously acknowledged accessing the account for research, which the minister deemed a breach of the ban.
- Martins was convicted by the STF’s 1st Panel in December to about 21 years for an attempted coup, appeals remain pending, and the court has not announced a ruling on the new submissions.
