The Federal Prosecutor's Office of Brasilia has asked the Federal Court to sentence the former deputy and former councilor of Plbadto Palace Rodrigo Rocha Loures (MDB-PR) in the case, with the $ 500,000 that He had received from the J & F group supposedly as a tip.

In 2017, Rocha Loures was arrested by the Federal Police (PF) in a controlled action, leaving a pizzeria in São Paulo to carry money in a suitcase and get in a taxi.

In the application for a conviction, which marks the final stage of the proceedings, the Crown says that the money was an "undue advantage" for former President Michel Temer during the period in which Emedebista had directed the palace of Plbadto.

Because of this episode of the suitcase, Temer was reported by the Attorney General's Office (PGR) to the Supreme Court in 2017 for pbadive bribery. However, the majority of the deputies rejected the continuation of the denunciation and the case was closed until the presidential term ended.

Following the departure of Temer from the presidency and the consequent loss of privileged status, the complaint against emedebista must be transmitted to the first instance of the Federal Court.
