'Strong Discontent', 'Public Outrage', and 'Crimes Against Sexual Dignity': What the CNJ Said When Removing a Judge

The National Justice Council (CNJ) of Brazil has suspended Judge Magid Nauef Láuar following investigations revealing evidence of sexual dignity crimes during his previous judicial duties.

The National Justice Council (CNJ) of Brazil has officially removed Judge Magid Nauef Láuar from his position in the 9th Criminal Chamber of the Minas Gerais Court of Justice due to serious accusations related to crimes against sexual dignity. This decision came after an investigation that uncovered potential criminal behavior linked to his time serving as a judge in Ouro Preto and Betim in Minas Gerais. Notably, Láuar's previous controversial decision, which led to public outrage, was his vote to acquit a 35-year-old man accused of raping a 12-year-old girl, claiming a 'consensual affective bond' between the two.
