Overview
- The city suspended Rodrigo Raveli from his role as SPTuris events manager while the Controladoria Geral do Município investigates alleged ties between him and a network of companies that provided services to the Instituto Conhecer Brasil.
- Police earlier carried out search-and-seizure measures in Operação Sem Wi‑Fi that targeted firms including Complexys, a company reporters say Raveli once co-owned and that later faced a warrant.
- Reporting by multiple outlets alleges Raveli helped secure or supervise millions in municipal contracts tied to the ICB and that public funds were used for events and wi‑fi projects linked to the NGO.
- The Instituto Conhecer Brasil says it complied with the police warrant and has hired independent auditors and forensic experts to cooperate with investigators and review its accounts.
- The case expands existing scrutiny of SPTuris procurement, which already prompted leadership changes over a large contract with MM Quarter, and could lead to administrative dismissal or criminal referrals depending on the control body’s findings.
