São Paulo Police Unveil New PCC Chart Detailing 100 Figures Across 16 Sectors

The mapping portrays a compartmentalized enterprise, signaling a shift toward mafia-style management with transnational reach.

Overview

  • The intelligence document identifies 100 individuals, with 89 baptized members holding voting power and a defined group of associates tied to finance and laundering.
  • Four newly mapped functions include an associates nucleus, a Raio-X compliance and audit arm led by Gratuliano de Souza Lira (Quadrado), an Internet and social media unit led by André Luiz de Souza (Andrezinho) and Eduardo Fernandes Dias (Destino), and a roster of expelled leaders labeled decretados, such as Abel Pacheco de Andrade (Vida Loka) and Wanderson Nilton de Paula Lima (Andinho).
  • Marco Willians Herbas Camacho (Marcola), who is imprisoned, remains at the top of the decision-making hierarchy as the group’s leader.
  • Police note a sharp expansion in the faction’s finances, from hundreds of thousands to turnover in the tens of billions of reais, largely tied to international cocaine trafficking and complex money‑laundering schemes.
  • Prosecutors maintain a broader estimate of at least 40,000 members and track activity in 28 countries, while media outlets confirm access to the new police document that will guide investigations.
