Sources: 4. Developments: 2. Cuiabá Mayor Abilio Brunini has engaged in several public disputes involving political and legal institutions. He criticized the Federal Police regarding ‘Operation Heritage’, characterizing the raid on former governor Mauro Mendes’s residence as a ‘spectacle’ for political exposure. Brunini specifically questioned the necessity of an early morning raid to collect Mendes’s passport. Additionally, Brunini commented on the relationship between President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and the Supreme Federal Court (STF), suggesting the President is unlikely to oppose the Court. He expressed skepticism regarding the National Congress’s ability to challenge STF ministers due to potential conflicts of interest. On a local level, Brunini ordered a traffic fine against a driver following a confrontation at Praça Alencastro. The incident occurred when a video recording was interrupted by an individual shouting political slogans in support of the Workers' Party (PT). During the dispute, the driver claimed a mental health condition to justify parking in a designated space; Brunini subsequently requested medical documentation and directed authorities to issue a fine. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-10: Abilio Brunini orders traffic fine following political dispute in Cuiabá Cuiabá Mayor Abilio Brunini ordered a traffic fine for a driver following a political dispute during a video recording regarding local mental health services. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/abilio-brunini-orders-traffic-fine-following-political-dispute-in-cuiab ### 2026-09-05: Abilio Brunini criticizes Federal Police and STF relations Cuiabá Mayor Abilio Brunini criticized the Federal Police's conduct during Operation Heritage and suggested President Lula will not oppose the Supreme Federal Court. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/abilio-brunini-criticizes-federal-police-and-stf-relations --- Cite as: Political activities of Cuiabá Mayor Abilio Brunini.
