Richarlison and Flávio Bolsonaro property dispute

Overview

Brazilian footballer Richarlison remains embroiled in a legal dispute with Senator Flávio Bolsonaro and attorney Willer Tomaz over occupation rights to a luxury mansion on Ilha Comprida, in Angra dos Reis. Richarlison alleges that after he invested approximately R$ 10 million in renovations and security starting in 2020, the Senator and Tomaz used political influence to seize the property following his refusal to sell. Flávio Bolsonaro’s office continues to deny involvement, maintaining the Senator is only a witness. Willer Tomaz, whose company holds possession, asserts the rights were legally acquired.

Parallel to the property dispute, the Federal Police are expanding an investigation into Senator Bolsonaro and Tomaz. This probe examines potential connections between the two men, such as shared international travel and business links to companies including Alcazar Holdings and RioPag. Investigators are specifically scrutinizing Bolsonaro’s professional activities and his access to bank accounts belonging to Tomaz’s holding company, Alcazar.

In a significant escalation, Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes has ordered the blocking of up to R$ 6 billion in assets belonging to Willer Tomaz. This seizure includes real estate, vehicles, aircraft, and boats, alongside the suspension of economic activities for companies linked to Tomaz, such as Alcazar Holdings and Cathedral Holdings. The investigation into Tomaz’s betting operations is also examining whether his accounts were used to conceal assets for Bolsonaro, noting that emails indicated the Senator held ‘master user’ status on certain accounts. Consequently, the court has ordered the lifting of banking and fiscal secrecy and the cancellation of Tomaz's passports. Recent developments in the money laundering probe reveal that Tomaz’s betting activities involved a massive volume of transactions, with cumulative betting reaching R$ 6.33 billion since 2025.
