8 January CPMI

[1] After acts of vandalism by supporters of former president Jair Bolsonaro against the Supreme Federal Court building, the National Congress Palace and the Planalto Palace, many disclaimer notes and solidarity notes supporting Lula's government and the defense of democracy in Brazil was published by the country's federative units and foreign countries.

[2] The CPI was first suggested by Bolsonaro supporters, who endorsed the theory that the federal government infiltrated people among the protesters to allow the invasion and pose as a victim.

[4] Until then, the government coalition had a position against the creation of the commission for considering that the investigations were ongoing by the Judiciary Power and the legislative branch of the Federal District.

Later, CNN Brazil published CCTV video, which was classified at the time, showing members of the Institutional Security Bureau ignoring the presence of the vandals, leading to the removal of Gonçalves Dias, head of the department appointed by Lula.

Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro affirmed that "there were infiltrated people" among the protesters, citing also supposed "violations of human rights and arbitrary arrests".
