The future Minister of Justice, controversial Flavio Dino, announced that the team of Lula da Silva (PT, progressive-globalist) would ask the Supreme Court (STF) to suspend the carrying of weapons in the Federal District in the coming days.

He made the statement at a press conference this Tuesday afternoon (27).

According to him, the goal is to increase security for Lula da Silva’s inauguration, scheduled for Sunday (Jan. 1).

“Now, in the early afternoon, we will request to Minister Alexandre de Moraes, the rapporteur of the inquiry of anti-democratic acts, to suspend the carrying of firearms in the Federal District between tomorrow [Wednesday] until the 2nd or 3rd of January” said Dino.

CONTROVERSIAL PERSON

Flávio Dino is no stranger to alleged criminal activity himself.

He is accused by José de Carvalho Filho, an executive of the construction company Odebrecht, of taking bribes to the tune of R$200,000 (US$38,500)

His government in the poor northern state of Maranhão is tainted by corruption in the health sector.

His government is also involved in investigations of fraudulent fuel purchases.

Finally, the Maranhão State Ministry is investigating Flávio Dino in the criminal area for alleged irregularities in his government.
