The leader of Flamengo and Rio councilor, Marcos Braz, and Senator Romário are being investigated by the Federal Police and the Federal Public Ministry for involvement in an alleged scheme to embezzle money from sports projects by Rio City Hall. The accusations against the parliamentarians came from a plea bargain.
According to information from UOL, an inquiry was opened at the beginning of this month at the STF to investigate the case, which has evidence of passive corruption and money laundering. The inquiry is also reported by minister Kassio Nunes Marques.
The basis for the investigations was an annex to the plea bargain of businessman Marcus Vinícius Azevedo da Silva. He was arrested in 2019, accused of participating in the diversion of resources from social projects of the government and city hall of Rio.
ACUSATION AGAINST MARCOS BRAZAccording to the whistleblower, the vice-president of Flamengo, Marcos Braz, was responsible for collecting amounts diverted in the scheme that involved an NGO for "illicit favoritism of Romário". Furthermore, Marcus Vinícius also said that the payments occurred during the time of Rubro-Negro's VP of football as head of the department, a position appointed by Romário and where he remained between January 2015 and March 2016.
ROMÁRIO DENYS ACCUSATIONAlso according to information from UOL, Romário said, through a note from his press office, that the accusation "has a vague and imprecise narrative". Marcos Braz, on the other hand, appeared surprised and said he would not speak out. According to UOL investigations, two contracts totaling R$13 million were signed with the NGO Cebrac during the Flamengo director's tenure, at the Rio Municipal Sports Secretariat.
