Zanin is chosen as action rapporteur by Master’s CPI after Toffoli declares himself a suspect
Minister Cristiano Zanin was selected on the night of this Wednesday, 11th, rapporteur of the action that calls for the installation of Banco Master’s CPI in the Chamber of Deputies. The draw took place shortly after Minister Dias Toffoli declared suspicion of handling the case, alleging ‘intimate forum’, but without specifying his reasons.
The draw for the rapporteur, which initially fell into Toffoli’s lap, occurred after the minister left, on February 12, to conduct the investigation at the STF that investigates the crimes allegedly committed by Master’s controllers.

Toffoli’s removal occurred after a private meeting between the Court’s ten ministers. At the time, they decided to remove Toffoli from the case, without formally declaring his suspicion or impediment.
By giving up the report, the minister supported the allegation of ‘intimate forum’ in article 145, paragraph 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure, “there is suspicion of the judge when he is a close friend or enemy of any of the parties or their lawyers”.
The minister did not reveal, however, who he referred to as a ‘close friend’ or an enemy in the Compliance Zero files.
The issue of the CPI in the Supreme Court was presented by federal deputy and former governor of the Federal District Rodrigo Rollemberg (PSB-DF). The parliamentarian requests the opening of the commission to investigate suspected fraud involving the negotiation of the purchase of Banco Master by Banco de Brasília.
In the petition sent to the Supreme Court, deputy Rodrigo Rollemberg states that there is an “unconstitutional act of omission” by the president of the Chamber, Hugo Motta, in not installing the CPI aimed at investigating “the frauds that occurred in the relationship between Banco Master and BRB”.
“The prolonged inertia in investigating serious financial frauds, such as those involving Banco Master and BRB, could cause irreparable damage to the financial system, investor confidence and the very image of parliamentary supervision”, states the deputy in the petition.
