Brazil’s president of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Minister Nelson Jobim, said that “there is no possibility of any type of institutional crisis” when it comes to accusations involving the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Severino Cavalcanti.
“This crisis is being completely handled through procedural means, with a clear administration within the jurisdictional sphere of each one,” the Minister observed.
The ex-manager of the Fiorella restaurant, Izeilton Carvalho, confirmed in testimony before the Federal Police the accusations he had made in the press over the weekend.
According to Carvalho, Cavalcanti charged the entrepreneur, Sebastião Augusto Buani, owner of the restaurant, monthly payoffs of US$ 4.3 thousand (R$ 10 thousand) in return for a five-year extension of the concession to use the restaurant.
Jobim declared that Brazilian institutions are capable of solving any problem.
“In our model there are strong and solid institutions, and all of them have the capacity to handle all incidents that might occur, whatever they may be, through procedural channels,” he said.

totally ….wrong…..
…..just have a look at what happened to Craig, English, who founded an orphanage in Brazil and is in jail for many many years due to wrong procedural judgement !!!!!!
He devoted his life to the orphans of your country !!!!!
His lawyer was not even present to defend him.
He did not even have a translator.
Is that fair justice….in Brazil ??????
Is this your way to thank devoted foreigners taking care of YOUR orphans ?????
You should have a minister of Injustice…..as there is no justice…in your country…except for the minority elite !!!!!!
Not only foreigners but also brazilians are complaining. But as usual….. nobody lessen to them !!!!!
