About: investigate irregular deductions from retirees

Sérgio Moro: Not only now the Banco Master scandal, but also, in the past, the mensalão and the petrolão.

Sérgio Moro: But now those most vulnerable people were attacked and hit, those people who often had no means to protect themselves and were deceived by swindlers who fraudulently deducted their benefits.

This crime cannot go unpunished and, for that, we need an impartial investigation.

Sérgio Moro: I have full confidence in the work carried out by Minister André Mendonça and had full confidence in the work that had been carried out by that team of the Federal Police.

Sérgio Moro: I hope — though I fear I may be mistaken — that the case continues to be handled by good hands, but for that we would need, at a minimum, a convincing, reasonable and objective explanation for why Lula replaced the investigator responsible for the investigations when those investigations may affect his own son. That is all, Mr. President. Thank you.
