Investigators working on the Master case have expressed concerns over Minister Dias Toffoli's position as the rapporteur of the inquiry in the Supreme Federal Court (STF), as they suggest that the evidence gathered so far has the potential to fundamentally alter the political landscape of the Republic. On Wednesday, the Federal Police delivered a report to Minister Fachin, the president of the STF, detailing forensic analysis of the cellular phone of Daniel Vorcaro, the owner of the Master company, which is under investigation for billion-dollar financial fraud. The report mentioned communications related to Toffoli, drawing attention to possible connections between him and Vorcaro.

The Federal Police has referenced an article from the Organic Law of the Judiciary, which addresses circumstances involving indications of crimes committed by judges, as it relates to Toffoli's involvement. In a statement, Toffoli described the allegations against him as mere 'illations,' a term that indicates he believes the accusations are unfounded or speculative. However, the investigators are looking into whether any payments were made to Toffoli in connection with Vorcaro and the Master company, suggesting the investigation could have serious repercussions for the minister and the judiciary.

As this case unfolds, it poses significant implications not only for Toffoli's career and reputation but also for the integrity of the Brazilian judicial system as a whole. If the allegations are substantiated, it could lead to a 'reset' of the Republic, as warned by the investigators themselves, highlighting the intertwined nature of politics and judicial conduct in Brazil. The outcomes of this investigation will likely resonate throughout the political arena, prompting discussions on accountability and the need for reforms in the judiciary.
