Moraes Grants Conditional Freedom to Ex-Deputy Daniel Silveira, Who Served 8 Years and 9 Months, Under Electronic Monitoring
Dec 20, 2024, 01:39 PM
On December 20, 2024, Alexandre de Moraes, a minister of Brazil's Supreme Federal Court (STF), granted conditional freedom to former deputy Daniel Silveira. Silveira, who was convicted in 2022 to a sentence of 8 years and 9 months for making threats against STF ministers, had been imprisoned since February 2023. The decision followed a favorable opinion from the Attorney General's Office (PGR), which noted that Silveira had served more than one-third of his sentence and posed no further risk. As part of his conditional release, Silveira will be required to wear an electronic monitoring device and is prohibited from using social media or contacting certain individuals, including former President Jair Bolsonaro. This ruling has sparked discussions regarding the implications for political accountability and judicial authority in Brazil.
