Operation Heritage
The investigations began with the analysis of an agreement signed between the State of Mato Grosso and Oi, related to the refund of amounts arising from a tax dispute.
According to the Federal Police, there is evidence that the financial operation may have been used to facilitate the diversion of public resources in excess of R$308 million. The suspicion is that a structure made up of cascading investment funds and intermediary companies was used to hide and disguise the origin, movement and destination of the values.
The facts discovered could constitute, in theory, the crimes of criminal organization, embezzlement, money laundering, crimes against the National Financial System and improper use of privileged information. Other infractions may also be identified during the investigations.
