All were sent, at the request of the PF, by the Fifth Federal Criminal Court of São Paulo. The targets were two OAS directors, the construction site and OAS externalized archives.
At this stage, the crimes of active bribery, pbadive bribery, money laundering and participation in a criminal organization, punishable by sentences ranging from 2 to 12 years in prison, are subject to investigation.
The report attempts to contact the OAS and Dersa.
When the first phase of the operation was launched in June, the company said that "the current leaders of the construction company have provided the authorities with all the details concerning the activities and contracts at the about which questions arise – in the project Rodoanel Especially and in all the others that he executes ".
On this occasion, Dersa said in a note that the government and the organ of São Paulo "are most interested in the progress of the process". "If there is a potential damage to the public treasury, the state will take appropriate action, as it has done on other occasions," says the note.
