Federal District government asks the Supreme Court to return R$ 12.2 billion BRB paid Master and for access to the bank's records
The Federal District's Attorney General asked Supreme Court Justice André Mendonça to order the return to BRB of the R$ 12.2 billion paid to Banco Master, with tracing and freezing of flows originating at BRB and judicial deposit of the funds, plus access to Master's and the Reag fund's lifted bank and tax secrecy to identify the diverted funds; the petition, filed August 25 and made public September 11, invokes Federal Police reports on fraudulent portfolios intermediated by Tirreno and international asset-recovery conventions.
