Vorcaro considers not attending CPI after Mendonça's veto on the use of private jet
Amidst security concerns, Daniel Vorcaro is likely to skip the INSS CPI after a Supreme Court ruling denied the use of a private jet for his attendance.
In response to a ruling from Supreme Court Justice André Mendonça, Daniel Vorcaro, owner of Banco Master, is contemplating not attending the CPI (Parliamentary Inquiry Commission) regarding the INSS. Mendonça's decision, announced on October 19, stipulates that Vorcaro is not required to appear at the CPI, which is scheduled for October 23. This ruling comes after the defense requested the use of a private jet for transportation, citing security concerns for Vorcaro. Mendonça's ruling allows for commercial flight or transport via the Federal Police instead.
Vorcaro's absence from the CPI seems almost certain, although there are still uncertainties regarding his attendance at the Senate's Economic Affairs Commission on October 24. The fears regarding Vorcaro's safety are underscored by the current legal and political context surrounding the inquiry. This situation raises questions about the accessibility of important testimonies in high-profile investigations and the measures taken to ensure the safety of individuals involved.
The political fallout from Vorcaro's potential non-attendance could influence public perception of the CPI and the broader discussions around accountability in the INSS. With Vorcaro opting out of this crucial testimony, it emphasizes the ongoing tensions between legal proceedings and individual security, illustrating the complexities faced by individuals entangled in political and legal scrutiny.
