The governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas, dismissed Guilherme Derrite, this Wednesday (5), from the state’s Public Security Secretariat. Derrite, who is also a federal deputy, returns to the Chamber where he will be the rapporteur of the bill that seeks to classify criminal factions as terrorist cells.
On October 29, still during the repercussions of the police operation in Rio de Janeiro – which left 121 people dead – Derrite announced that he would take leave from his position in the São Paulo government to be the rapporteur of the PL that modifies the Anti-Terrorism Law. The intention is to include militias and criminal factions as terrorist organizations. Bill 1,283/2025 is authored by federal deputy Danilo Forte (União Brasil-CE) and is being processed by the Constitution and Justice Committee (CCJ) of the Chamber.

The federal government is against this project. This Wednesday (6), Gleisi Hoffman, Minister of Institutional Relations, said that the “government is completely against” the PL: “Terrorism has a political and ideological objective and, according to international law, it provides shelter for other countries to intervene in our country. We do not agree with this”, he said.
