Dallagnol is under investigation for criticizing Supreme Court justices.
Prosecutor Deltan Dallagnol will have to explain himself to the internal affairs offices of the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office (MPF) and the National Council of the Public Prosecutor's Office (CNMP) for his criticism of Supreme Court justices who decided to transfer parts of the plea bargains of former Odebrecht executives that referred to former President Lula to Brasília. In an interview with CBN radio, Dallagnol stated that the decision was made "by those who take everything out of Curitiba and send everything to the Electoral Court, always granting habeas corpus, always forming a clique, and sending a very strong message of leniency in favor of corruption."
247 - Federal prosecutor and member of the Lava Jato task force, Deltan Dallagnol, will have to provide explanations to the internal affairs offices of the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office (MPF) and the National Council of the Public Prosecutor's Office (CNMP) for his criticisms of Supreme Federal Court (STF) ministers who decided to transfer to the Brasília courts parts of the plea bargain testimony where former Odebrecht executives made references to former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
In an interview with CBN radio, this Wednesday (15), Dallagnol stated that the decision was taken "by the same three (ministers Dias Toffoli, Gilmar Mendes and Ricardo Lewandowski) as always, who take everything from Curitiba and send everything to the Electoral Court and always grant habeas corpus, are always forming a clique and sending a very strong message of leniency in favor of corruption".
According to columnist Mônica Bergamo of Folha de São Paulo, one of the investigations against Dallagnol was opened at the request of Minister Dias Toffoli to investigate a possible disciplinary infraction on the part of the prosecutor.
According to the Inspector General of the CNMP, Orlando Rochadel, the body has opened a disciplinary complaint. "In this first phase, we will transcribe the interview he gave and see if there is any indication of wrongdoing and if there are expressions incompatible [with the exercise of the function]," he said. "Then we will ask for explanations and, from there, decide whether to open an administrative disciplinary procedure," he added.
