Legal proceedings against Raimundo Cutrim in Brazil

Overview

The Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) unanimously upheld the house arrest of former Maranhão secretary Raimundo Cutrim in a 9-0 vote. The decision, following a rapporteur's recommendation by Alexandre de Moraes, stems from investigations into Cutrim’s alleged role as a source for reports regarding the suspected irregular use of official vehicles by relatives of Flávio Dino.

Following the judicial decision, Cutrim was hospitalized at Hospital São Domingos in São Luís after being diagnosed with left-sided facial paralysis. While initial reports suggested a stroke, medical examinations did not confirm this. Cutrim has since been discharged to continue treatment at home with medication and physical therapy. His legal defense intends to petition the court for authorization to allow a physiotherapist to provide treatment at his residence due to his physical limitations.
