Sérgio Moro: I presented this bill, which had an accelerated procedure before the Federal Senate — it was approved quickly in the CCJ, even unanimously — and it went to the Chamber of Deputies.
Sérgio Moro: There it was approved in the CCJ and awaits a vote by the Plenary of that House.
Among the various measures we put forward, one of them should be highlighted for this moment, which is the provision that law enforcement agents, whether active or retired, may receive police protection when, even retired, they still find themselves in a situation of risk as a result of having exercised their former function, because, with respect to those who confront organized crime, the risk does not end with inactivity, the risk does not end with retirement.
Sérgio Moro: It is exactly the opposite: the risk is accentuated, especially because, out of active service, the police officer, the judge, the prosecutor stop circulating as frequently within the circles of Justice or the police and become more exposed to possible attacks carried out by organized crime.
Sérgio Moro: We even have a personal situation reported by Prosecutor Lincoln Gakiya himself, who is also one of those on the front line against organized crime, who will soon be of retirement age and will have difficulties retiring because, if he retires, he also runs the risk of losing that protection, but it is not only Ruy Fontes, it is not only Lincoln Gakiya, there are hundreds of public servants, police officers, judges, prosecutors and professionals from other careers who expose themselves daily to confronting organized crime.
