Brazil’s justice orders the blocking of assets of alleged financiers of the assault on powers
The Federal Justice of Brazil has ordered this Wednesday to block the assets of 52 people and seven companies for allegedly being involved in financing the assault on January 8 at the headquarters of State powers.
Thus, the Brazilian Justice has given the “green light” to this decision, requested by the Attorney General of the Republic and whose ultimate goal is to cover the reparations for the damages caused by the assailants, according to ‘O Globo’.
Among those sanctioned is Ademir Luis Graeff, a businessman from Paraná -a state where Bolsonaro had great support-, and who has had a luxury car blocked to pay the expenses caused by the damages in the Congress, the Planalto Palace and the Supreme Court.
On the other hand, a businessman from Santa Catarina has also had up to five vehicles blocked, while Gran Brasil Viagens e Turismo, a company dedicated to the tourism sector in Minas Gerais, has had up to seven buses blocked.
Those accused of financing the invasion of the headquarters of the three State powers will now have the possibility of defending themselves during a judicial process after which, if they finally emerge innocent, they will be able to recover their assets.
