In a significant development regarding the investigation of Banco Master, Minister André Mendonça of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) has granted permission for Daniel Vorcaro, the bank's owner, to appear before the Senate's Economic Affairs Commission (CAE). This decision comes in response to a request from Senator Renan Calheiros, the CAE president, who emphasized the importance of Vorcaro's testimony in clarifying issues pertinent to the commission's inquiries. Vorcaro is scheduled to appear on March 10 at 11 a.m., marking a critical moment for both the senator's committee and the ongoing investigation into the operations of Banco Master.

Mendonça's authorization is contingent upon a formal indication from Vorcaro expressing his willingness to appear, adding an element of procedural rigor to the arrangement. The Supreme Court's communication to the CAE, Federal Police, and Vorcaro's legal defense highlights the urgency and importance of ensuring a secure and compliant process for the testimony. This protocol aims to protect the integrity of the legal proceedings while facilitating the Senate's oversight functions.

Senator Renan Calheiros has previously noted that Vorcaro's defense team had already communicated their intention for him to participate in the CAE session. This proactive engagement indicates a level of cooperation between Vorcaro's legal representatives and the Senate, which could influence public perception and the outcomes of the investigation into Banco Master, thereby setting a precedent for similar inquiries in the future.
