The Amazonas Civil Police launched Operation Erga Omnes targeting a supposed political faction linked to Comando Vermelho, resulting in multiple arrests and significant seizures.
The Amazonas Civil Police executed Operation Erga Omnes with the objective of dismantling an alleged political core associated with the criminal organization known as Comando Vermelho. This operation was initiated following the seizure of approximately 500 tablets of skunk marijuana and other trafficking-related items, revealing questionable financial activities and connections to public institutions. Investigations expanded significantly upon these findings, suggesting a complex network operating within the state's public system.
During the operation, preventive arrest warrants and search and seizure orders were carried out not only in Amazonas but across six other Brazilian states. The action successfully led to the arrest of 14 individuals, eight of whom were apprehended in Amazonas, while several others, including the suspected leader, remain at large. As part of the operation, luxury vehicles, cash, and important documents were seized, indicating the extent of financial resources tied to the criminal activities of Comando Vermelho.
The article compiles key points raised by local authorities regarding the progress of the case, including questions about how the investigation began and the ongoing need for clarity on various aspects of the operation. This underlines the broader implications for public safety and governance in Brazil, particularly in combating the infiltration of organized crime within governmental structures.
