Brazil CPMI report spares alleged INSS fraud mastermind linked to Bolsonaro ally

A CPMI report by Flávio Bolsonaro's vice, Alfredo Gaspar, names Wilson Gomes as the 'big boss' of an INSS pension fraud scheme but omits his indictment, despite Gomes being a convicted money launderer with ties to drug trafficking. Gomes allegedly brokered a deal with a Bolsonaro minister to enable pension discounts. The omission suggests political protection, raising questions about the commission's impartiality and potential obstruction of justice.
