Legal proceedings regarding Roberto Zampieri murder

Overview

A retired colonel, Etevaldo Luiz Caçadini de Vargas, is facing a jury trial scheduled for September 29 in Cuiabá. He is accused of financing the murder of lawyer Roberto Zampieri.

A judge recently authorized his transfer from Brasília to Cuiabá to allow him to meet in person with his legal team. The judge described these meetings as an “indispensable provision” given the complexity of the evidence. Upon arrival in Mato Grosso, the defendant will be held at the 44th Motorized Infantry Battalion.
