The Federal Regional Court of the 4th Region (TRF4), headquartered in Porto Alegre, corrected today (14) information released on the case of lawyer Rodrigo Tacla Duran, defendant for the crime of money laundering in one of the Lava Jato Operation processes.
According to errata published by the court, Duran had no arrest warrant reinstated by decision of judge Marcelo Malucelli, as reported yesterday (13) by TRF4.
According to the court, Malucelli only understood that Judge Eduardo Appio, of the 13th Federal Court in Curitiba, who had revoked Duran’s arrest, could not decide on the issue due to an injunction from the Federal Supreme Court (STF) that suspended the process.
“The decision taken in the partial correction, moreover, did not decree any arrest, even because this measure was not even requested or was under discussion in the said procedure”, clarified the court.
accusations
Last month, during a hearing with Eduardo Appio, Tacla Duran said he was the target of persecution for not accepting being extorted during the process in which he is a defendant.
Duran said he was contacted by a person who acted as a campaign handler for Senator Sérgio Moro (União-PR) and a lawyer linked to his wife, Rosangela Moro, who would have offered a plea bargain during the investigations.
From the mentions, Appio decided to send the case to the Supreme, the court responsible for analyzing issues involving parliamentarians with privileged jurisdiction.
After the disclosure of the testimony, the senator said he does not fear any investigation. “Since 2017 he has been making false accusations, without any proof, except those that he himself manufactured”, he countered.
