Folha now attacks Lula with 'coach' for the former president's son.

While Michel Temer and several of his ministers were denounced for soliciting and receiving millions from Odebrecht, Folha attacks Lula this Sunday, the 19th, for a training course offered by the construction company to one of his sons; the Lula Institute says it will not comment on "alleged incomplete information based on supposed out-of-context documents that are under judicial secrecy."

247 - The Folha de S.Paulo newspaper decided to attack Lula this Sunday, the 18th, with a report about an alleged favor done by Odebrecht to the former president, which consists of a professional training course for the youngest son of the Workers' Party member, Luis Claudio Lula da Silva.

Meanwhile, Michel Temer and several of his ministers were accused of soliciting and receiving millions in bribes from Odebrecht in exchange for acting in favor of the construction company in Congress or the government.

In response to the newspaper's statement, the Lula Institute says it will not comment on "alleged incomplete information based on supposedly out-of-context documents that are under judicial secrecy." It also states that the article is based "on an alleged plea bargain to obtain judicial benefits that should be under seal, without presenting transcripts, documents, context, the time of the event, or any basic information that would even allow one to understand what the report is asking."
