Informer Lúcio Funaro
Securities broker Lúcio Funaro, who is collaborating with Operation Car Wash investigators, told the Prosecutor General's Office that Brazilian president Michel Temer used bribe money to buy real estate.
Funaro's testimonies were released to the public domain by Brazil's Supreme Court (STF) earlier this week. The informant said that José Yunes, a former aide of Temer's, laundered money for the president.
The testimony states that Funaro "knows that Michel Temer owns real estate that was acquired through Yunes' corporations; since he works in the stock market, he knows that the easiest way to launder money is through real estate acquisitions". Funaro stated that "the money laundered by Yunes was in favor of Michel Temer".
He also said that former congressman Eduardo Cunha (PMDB) told him about a property in São Paulo. According to the testimony, Funaro "knows, through Eduardo Cunha, that Michel Temer owns an entire floor on Brigadeiro Faria Lima Avenue, in São Paulo/SP; in a brand new building".
