Master Case: Mendonça summons the Federal Police for a new meeting on Monday

Minister André Mendonça of Brazil's Supreme Court convenes a meeting with the Federal Police to discuss developments in the investigation of alleged irregularities at Master bank.

André Mendonça, a minister of the Brazilian Supreme Court, has called for a new meeting with the Federal Police scheduled for Monday, the 23rd, to review the ongoing investigations into suspected irregularities involving Master bank. As the newly appointed rapporteur for the case following the departure of Minister Dias Toffoli, Mendonça aims to assess the current status and determine the next steps in the investigation.

This meeting follows Mendonça's initial consultation with federal investigators just days after assuming the role of rapporteur, where he aimed to gather a comprehensive overview of the case. Recently, he mandated the resumption of 'ordinary flow' in the actions regarding expert analysis and testimonies, which marks a significant shift from the previous directives laid down by Toffoli, who had specified certain forensic experts to focus on the materials related to the case.

Approximately 100 electronic devices are part of the investigation according to the National Institute of Criminalistics, which underscores the complexity and magnitude of the case against Master bank. As the investigation progresses, the implications for the bank and involved parties could be substantial, affecting not only legal standings but also public trust in financial institutions in Brazil.
