The Advocacy General of the Union (AGU) entered the Federal Court, this Friday (3), to ask that the financiers of the anti-democratic acts of January 8 be sentenced to pay R$ 100 million for collective moral damages.
According to the AGU, the action involves 54 individuals, three companies, an association and a union, who are also sued for property damage estimated at R$ 20 million, for financing the charter of buses to transport the investigated to Brasília.
Advocacia da União maintains that, in addition to the material damage caused, those involved violated legal values established with the Democratic State of Law.
“The acts were carried out to the detriment of the federal buildings that represent the Three Powers of the Republic, a listed heritage of humanity, with the destruction of symbols of inestimable value, leaving society in a state of shock with the acts that took place on the fateful January 8 2023”, argued the agency.
So far, the Attorney General’s Office has filed five lawsuits in court to collect all damages caused by anti-democratic acts and obtained the blocking of assets and accounts to guarantee reimbursement to public coffers.
