Overview
- The dispute began when an entry showing senator Flávio Bolsonaro as a Missão member appeared in the Justiça Eleitoral Filia system and briefly blocked his bid to register with the PL, prompting the TSE to call the event a 'uso indevido', restore his PL filiation and pause Filia processing.
- On Friday Missão filed a formal representation at the TSE and a police report with the Polícia Federal and delivered technical records that the party says include an IP address timestamped August 2 at 9:05 and email delivery and open logs tied to the registration.
- Missão told the court it tried to cancel the party-side record on August 12 at 9:11 but received an HTTP 403 error denying the action, and the party says it also detected and stopped a separate attempted registration in the name of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on August 13.
- Critics including Fernando Holiday have publicly accused Missão of prior knowledge or responsibility for the bogus filiation, while Missão insists it is a victim and seeks provider subpoenas to identify who accessed the account and IP shown in its logs.
- Investigations are now pending at the TSE and PF, with prosecutors and service providers expected to verify the party's logs and connection records; the outcome could determine criminal responsibility and affect trust in the Filia platform during the candidacy deadline period.
