> The judiciary cannot act ex officio. It must be prompted by the public prosecutor or another party, such as defense attorneys.

From what I gather they used Article 43 from the court proceedings, that's the debatable part but they can act under that, no?

>> Reporting that his deposition was reported to the PGR and Lava Jato task force while both denied receiving any material about it. It sounds like a pretty clear case of defamation/libel.

> Funny. Evidence collected from Lava Jato is illegal. But Telegram messages collected by a hacker and whose authenticity was not confirmed, were normally used to free corrupt individuals from jail.

Nothing of what I said was evidence collected from Lava Jato, you are creating a strawman here.

What I said was: the reporting from "O Antagonista"/"Crusoé" mentioned that there was material being handed over by Odebrecht's lawyers to the Lava Jato task force and to the PGR about Toffoli, while both (the task force and PGR) denied there was ever anything handed over to them by Odebrecht naming "friend of a friend" as Toffoli. And that's libel.

> Filipe G Martins.

Yeah, reading about his imprisonment seems like the Moraes is using a similar heavy-handed illegal approach used by Moro/Delagnol during Lava Jato. He shouldn't have been arrested given the cause (the travel) didn't happen, even though he was part of the coup planning I can't ever condone this overstepping of the court, pretty stupid from Moraes part.

Kind of. The article 43 from the court proceedings, is clear when it says that it limits the power of investigation to the court's premises. The internet does not seem to me to be a court's premises.

> And that's libel.

I'm not sure. And it's hard to analise it since the evidence has either been destroyed or is under seal.

> pretty stupid from Moraes part

one more thing about Moraes that looks like power abuse: https://www.estadao.com.br/politica/blog-do-fausto-macedo/de...


For the Martins case it seems like there was some actual paperwork issues from the US where he was incorrectly listed as having traveled; hard (for me) to tell whether that was stupidity or malice though.
