Brazilian federal police and the prosecutor general's office denied reports that judge Marcus Vinícius da Rocha Lopes Vorcaro financed a documentary about former president Lula.
The defense team for Jair Bolsonaro's former minister, Walter Braga Netto, denies any knowledge of his alleged sponsorship of a film about former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Both the Federal Police and the Attorney General's Office have also stated that Braga Netto did not claim to have financed the documentary.
This situation arises amid ongoing investigations into alleged illicit campaign financing during the 2018 presidential election. The denials from all parties suggest a potential disconnect or misrepresentation of facts concerning the film's funding and any involvement by former government officials.
