STF Justice Toffoli denies Maranhão Governor's request to halt Federal Police probe

Justice Dias Toffoli rejected Governor Carlos Brandão's attempt to suspend a Federal Police investigation into alleged embezzlement and homicide, which is currently supervised by Justice Flávio Dino. The governor challenged the court's jurisdiction, arguing the case should be moved from the Supreme Federal Court to a lower tribunal. The ruling maintains the current oversight of the inquiry into the governor's political circle.
