The leader of the Workers’ Party in the House of Representatives, Lindbergh Farias (PT-RJ), used social media to criticize the fourth version of the report on the anti-factionalism bill (PL), presented on Wednesday night (11/12) by rapporteur Guilherme Dayret (PP-SP).
According to the MP, the alternative presented by Dirit leads to fragmentation of the budget allocated to combating organized crime, which harms the efficiency of national police procedures.
“The alternative also dismantles the policy of cutting off factional capital by eliminating the special precautionary measures provided for in the original project (…). As a result, the proposal loses its backbone: the ability to quickly block illicit resources and reach the financial heart of criminal factions,” he wrote on social network X.
Lindbergh also accused the rapporteur of “inventing categories without a legal basis” and of trying to erase the terminology of “criminal faction” introduced by the government’s original text.
He stated that “this kind of conceptual improvisation weakens criminal policy, confuses legal actors and hides the real goal: to distort the technical and coherent proposal of the executive power, replacing it with a pile of empty concepts and contradictory tools.”

Critical point
Earlier, Derrett met with the Executive Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Manuel Carlos de Almeida Neto, to discuss the text. One of the criticisms leveled by the Ministry was that the latest version presented by the rapporteur specified a general allocation of resources obtained from the confiscation of assets from drug traffickers and members of criminal organizations to public security funds at the state or district level.
In the Government’s opinion, when the investigation, seizure and prosecution are carried out at the federal level, the amounts should be allocated to the Fund for the Equipment and Operation of Basic Activities of the Federal Police (Funapol) and the National Prison Fund (Funpen).
After criticism, the rapporteur amended the text: When the police conduct the investigation, the amounts will be allocated to the fund. In cases under the responsibility of local authorities, resources go to the Public Security Fund of the Länder or the Federal District.
The vote has been postponed
The vote on the project, which was scheduled for Wednesday, was postponed at the request of Derret, who asked the president of the chamber, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), to reschedule it for November 18.
“In response to the request of many parliamentarians and leaders, we can move this discussion forward once and for all, and be able to discuss it on Tuesday next week,” Derrett said.
Hugo Motta confirmed the postponement and canceled the leaders’ meeting scheduled for this Thursday (13/11), knowing that PL Antifaction will be the only item on the agenda next Tuesday.
