Brazil prosecutors close betting inquiry without further investigations
Brazil’s Federal Public Ministry (MPF) decided not to pursue further investigations after reviewing documents and testimony from the Senate’s betting inquiry, the source says. The inquiry report, led by Senator Soraya Thronicke, recommended indictments but did not win support from the commission; the MPF said evidence was insufficient to continue the case or open new proceedings.
The decision ends the inquiry’s referral pathway for further federal investigations based on the material reviewed.
