On the second day after assuming judicial duty at the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Minister Alexandre de Moraes ordered the opening of another investigation—unrelated to the ongoing cases involving Master Bank—aimed at probing a possible "violation of fiscal secrecy of court justices and their families," allegedly committed by officials from the Federal Revenue and the Council for Financial Activities Control (Coaf).
At least two of the 11 judges were directly affected, although the investigation is broad in scope and includes data related to all 11 STF members.
The Federal Revenue and Coaf have been officially requested to clarify who accessed the protected information, as all access is recorded through logs and internal passwords.
According to the Poder360 portal, if the explanations provided are deemed insufficient, forensic examinations of systems and devices, as well as the breaking of telecommunication secrecy of authorities, are not ruled out.
