Brazil: Gilmar orders Vorcaro phone data to PF, escalating court clash

Brazilian Supreme Court (STF) justices are in a confirmed internal dispute regarding access to former banker Daniel Vorcaro's cell phone data. Justices Zanin and Gilmar Mendes have ordered the Federal Police (PF) to deliver this data, while the Prosecutor-General (PGR) and other ministers are also seeking full access before a scheduled Tuesday judgment that could authorize an investigation into Justice Alexandre de Moraes. The specific charges against Vorcaro and the full implications of the data remain undisclosed, but the procedural maneuvering indicates significant institutional friction.
