The investigation, dubbed Operation Consulesa, has placed the vice-mayor of Capim Branco, a municipality near Belo Horizonte, under intense scrutiny.\n\nRomar Gonçalves Ribeiro, the vice-mayor, is a key figure in the probe. Federal Police executed a search warrant at his residence as part of the crackdown. Investigators allege he is a beneficiary of illicit funds generated by the criminal organization, which specialized in helping businesses and local governments illegally reduce their tax debts to the federal government.\n\nThe scheme was elaborate. Criminal groups, operating through law firms, tax consultancies, and shell companies, would approach debtors and offer to settle their obligations for a fraction of the amount owed. Their methods were entirely illegal, involving the use of worthless or fictitious assets, such as expired external debt titles and documents for non-existent land, to create fraudulent tax credits.\n\nAccording to the judicial authorization for the warrants, intercepted communications between the alleged head of the organization and his secretary discuss the payment of a \"commission\" to an individual named Romar. Furthermore, bank transfer receipts totaling approximately R$ 25,000 were discovered, moving from a company suspected in the fraud to a firm where the vice-mayor is the majority shareholder.\n\nThe scale of the alleged fraud is staggering. Authorities estimate the total damage to public coffers at around R$ 770 million. The operations, Consulesa and Títulos Podres, were jointly launched by the Federal Police, the Federal Revenue Service, and the Federal Public Ministry to dismantle these criminal networks.\n\nWhile the criminals initially succeeded in obtaining clean tax clearance certificates for their clients, the fraud was eventually detected. This left the original debtors in a worse position, now liable for the original debt plus substantial fines and interest, on top of the 30% fee they had already paid the fraudulent consultancies.\n\nThe enforcement action was extensive, resulting in 69 search warrants and 10 arrest warrants executed across five Brazilian states: Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Maranhão, and Espírito Santo. Authorities seized cell phones, vehicles, jewelry, computer equipment, and R$ 140,000 in cash.\n\nThe Capim Branco city government stated it had not been officially notified of any investigation involving the vice-mayor and would await official developments. The Federal Police have pledged to analyze the seized materials thoroughly to determine if further phases of the operation are necessary.
