00:00President of Brazil, Lula da Silva, spoke out this Thursday in the scandal surrounding
00:05the Master case and demanded that the investigation include all those involved without exception.
00:10The head of state was directed in demanding that all those involved be investigated with
00:15no immunity for anyone, he said, after it became known that there had been contacts
00:20between the former director of Master Bank, Daniel Borcaro, and Supreme Court Justice
00:25Alexandre de Moraes, in the days leading up to the arrest of the bank executive.
00:30For his part, the justice has asked the Supreme Court to investigate his colleague, André
00:34Mendoza, for alleged abuse of authorities, administrative misconduct and criminal liability.
00:39President Lula da Silva has referred that in his government, no one is above judicial scrutiny.
00:49Given the gravity of the situation, the Brazilian people expect the Chief Justice of the Supreme
00:55Court and the Attorney General's Office to lead a process that ensures the integrity and
01:00credibility of investigations.
01:03As President of the Republic, I believe that only by acting with firmness and transparency
01:08can we ensure that these institutions are respected by Brazilian society.
01:14It is essential that everyone be investigated without shielding anyone, no matter who it may
01:19hurt.
