The chief minister of the GSI (Institutional Security Office), Augusto Heleno, directly threatened the Supreme Federal Court and criticized the request to seize the cell phones of Jair Bolsonaro and his son, Carlos Bolsonaro, after a decision made by Minister Celso de Mello to the PGR (Attorney General's Office) for evaluation.
Heleno said the request was "inconceivable and, to a certain extent, unbelievable" in a statement sent to the press. The minister considered the measure "an affront to the highest authority of the Executive Branch and an interference by another branch in the privacy of the President of the Republic and the institutional security of the country."
Minister Heleno's note also sent a "warning" that the seizure of the cell phones "could have unpredictable consequences for national stability."
Read the full note:
“The request to seize the President of the Republic’s cell phone is inconceivable and, to a certain extent, unbelievable.
If it were to come into effect, it would be an affront to the highest authority of the Executive Branch and an unacceptable interference by another Branch in the privacy of the President of the Republic and the institutional security of the Country.
The Institutional Security Office of the Presidency of the Republic warns the authorities that such an attitude is a clear attempt to compromise the harmony between the powers and could have unpredictable consequences for national stability.”
