The Attorney General’s Office (AGU) asked the Federal Court to definitively condemn 40 people arrested in flagrante delicto invading and plundering public property during the January 8 coup acts. The agency also wants them to reimburse the public coffers by R$ 20.7 million. The value corresponds to the “already incontrovertible material damage” already reported by Congress, the Planalto Palace and the Federal Supreme Court (STF), argues the AGU in the opinion sent to the Federal Court of Brasília. The defendants are preventively detained, for participating “in the materialization of the acts of invasion and depredation of federal public buildings, so much so that in the midst of these acts they were arrested in flagrante delicto as responsible for the acts of vandalism in the premises of the buildings of the three Powers of the Republic ”, says the request of the AGU. The AGU also says that “more than the material damage to the federal public property that is the object of this action, damage to the democratic order itself and to the Brazilian image resulted”. The entirety of the request was not disclosed since the process is confidential, justified the AGU. Only a few excerpts were released. The targets of the condemnation request already have assets blocked on a precautionary basis, at the request of Union lawyers. The case is one of four civil actions filed by the AGU. In all cases, the agency has already obtained precautionary measures to block assets. At least 178 individuals, three companies, an association and a union are the target of the lawsuits.
