In an appeal to the São Paulo Court of Justice, prosecutors Leandro Henrique Leme and Silvio Marques of the São Paulo Public Prosecutor's Office appeal to the courts to determine the immediate loss of public office of the Minister of the Environment , Ricardo Salles.
The Minister was sentenced for the first time last December for administrative irregularity in the context of a lawsuit relating to the modification of Tietê River Basin maps for the benefit of a mining company . At the time, Salles was Secretary of the Environment Geraldo Alckmin's Government (PSDB).
The Minister and others found guilty in the case appeal from the second instance. The complaint that resulted in the conviction of Salles relates to the modification of maps prepared by the University of São Paulo, the draft management plan decree and the persecution of employees of the Forest Foundation in order to promote businesses.
The G1 questioned the press service of the Ministry of the Environment if Salles was informed of it and wished to comment on the case, but the agency said that 39 "it is a personal matter of the minister".
The document filed by the proponents of Paulista last Thursday (24) speaks of "very serious environmental consequences" caused by the reasons that led to the conviction of Salles.
"In this case, it should be emphasized the serious consequences of the changes made to the APAVRT's management plan and the extent of the damage, given the size of the unit of conservation, "says the document.
"Recall the case of mining, with the changes introduced by the defendants, now on appeal, an activity that has very adverse consequences for the environment, as highlighted by the eminent professors of the USP. "
The prosecutors point out that the convicts, "even knowing the usual procedures for developing a management plan, have subverted the entire administrative procedure" to take into account commercial requests that had already been rejected in due course.
The request for loss of public office formulated by the promoters also indicates that "Ricardo de Aquino Salles held the most relevant position in the Paulista environmental system and, despite everything, personally determined the realization of fraudulent modifications in the plan of management of APAVRT ". they are unfavorable to the environment.
